Here are some pics of how I wired the lights to the fuse box.The red is the power source or positive,The negitive or black wire was put to the factory bolt where the rest of the negitives or ground wires are(its to the left of the fuse box just look for the bot with like 7 wires coming off it lol)....you can see it on the left side!!

In the bottom pic you can see where I wired it through the factory grommit in the back!

I didnt put the strips in the headlights they are stuck on the bottom......but when I did tint my amber sidemarkers I used a heat gun around the edges of the headlight to soften the seal the just pulled them apart!

Does the strip get pinched between the two? If so, placement of the strip would have to be perfect, otherwise if it's to far back the bumper would then cover it up once put back on.

There's no gap on the ap2 bumper. I tried this a year ago and gave up on the idea because no matter what I tried, only a portion of the strip would show. I had the exact same leds, just from a different company. I ended up going to these: http://www.s2katlant...ght=#post330648. This isn't my car, but a friend's. He has the same lights.
