so i did the how to glowing trim and got everything wired up correctly but i cant seem to find the wire that runs the dash lights at night. also i am having trouble finding a place to put the ground wire. can someone point out those places please. thank you!

 

put ground on anything metal that attches to the frame of the car. as for the dash lights, no idea. google wiring schematics and u mght be able to find something. unless someone has access to gm tech articles or someone has the schematics from elsewhere.

 

if i remember right its a grey wire, but i tapped into the map lights just above the roof liner, not at the bcm. its easy to find up there with a test light, only 3 wires.

 

i just want these lights to come on when i turn the car on. there has to be a wire down there that does that

 

always on is any ACC wire, there are lots down there, or you can use a fuse tap which will be easier.
sunroof fuse will give you RAP power as well.

if you want it on ONLY at night, you'll need to tap a wire that powers on with the ambient light sensor.

 

Just hook it up to a fuse and use a switch.

 

The third fuse on the top from the right Will work with the key .

 

Sorry from the left side not right.

 

Isn't that an ignition fuse

 

lol u act like all of them are the same

 

DONT use that 2amp fuse on the top row. its ignition but it'll blow very easily and you'll be in trouble.

Use the fuse position 4th row down, 2nd in....i think its #16....and yes I realize you dont have a fuse in that slot currently
this ones a 15amp slot and gives you RAP power (works with IGN even when the car is off until the doors are opened)

 

He only wants it on at night though.

OP seriously, go buy a $3 switch from autozone and just hook that up. Way easier

 

yes!!!!!!!! i got it to work. thanks guys i really appreciate it!

 

Where did you hook it up
