    Hey guys picked up a statesman centre console piece with the light for the compartment.
    I had a look around, couldnt see the wiring anywhere near my gearstick.
    Does the wiring come standard on vx's? or will i need to wire it up myself?

    there isn't a plug for it on my vx exec and i've not seen that plug, is it taped to the window plug and what colour wires are they

    getting pwr to it is easy enough depending on how you want to do it , always on, with ACC

    yea mate, here are a few. i had a look around the wiring for a connector. couldn't find anything.
    sorry the photo is poor quality but it has two prongs and the cables are black and red.
