You didn't happen to find a location closer to the dash to tap for door only lights did you? I want to do the puddle lights and lights in the foot wells that come on when the doors are open, but would rather not have to run wire all the way up to the dome light...

Thanks!

You should really find a Porsche, Ferrari, Maserati, Lambo, etc badge to put on your car.

At this point, NO . I tried looking but its just way to cluttered down by the fuse box. It's actually pretty simple to run the wires by the A-pillar. Sorry I cannt be much more help

Have you tried to ground anything in the back of the car? I working on putting emergency responder-type flashers in my car and am hoping to just run a power wire to the rear of the car and ground the lights somewhere in back. Problem is, I can't seem to find a decent ground.

I've tried the the metal holding the rear seats in place and everything and nothing seems to provide enough of a ground.

Am I stuck running 2 wires to the front of the car?

Thanks again,
Paul

it's fine cuz ppl may have the same questions as you.

Anywhere metal will sufice just make sure to sand the ____ out of it. This is where i grounded 2nd reverse light




I sanded the part where the wire touches the metal obvi


on my old corolla i grounded the amps where the seats attach to the chassis

On the dome light wire, look at the thread I posted awhile back in ice. Full wiring diagram for our car, it should be in there. I'm on the cell phone so its a pita to search the forum

I'll look for when I do the rest of the lighting, but I already ran the wires for the footwell lighting. Thanks though.

Hey, how easy was it to take out the grille? I want to paint mine red but this thing doesn't look like it comes out all that simple.
