[QUOTE="Johnny Drama, post: 1501386, member: 554719"] First thing...the wire for your lights should NOT be hooked up to your ground in any way. You my friend are asking for trouble. Second thing...Do you not think that you would be better going to a shop? Last...did you just cut all the wires behind your head unit or did you buy a factory harness from say walmart or a local shop? You will need to have the yellow hooked up to the battery wire from the harness (yellow) You will need the power on/ off(red) hooked up to its corresponding acc wire (red) You will need a ground...THIS WILL NOT BE AN ILLUMINATION WIRE. You are risking fire as is. They usually are black, but your car may be different. Do you have a multi meter? [/QUOTE]
