I guess you want to hard wire them? You probably could have posted this in the Electrical/Wiring part becasue it doesn't mattr what car you have, it's basically the same to install into em all :p.
Anyway, if you wanted to just use the cigarette lighter then just plug the connector that you should have got into where the cigarette lighter plug is (just under the place for your cd player), then use double sided tape, screws, cables ties or whatever to hold it up in place under the dash.
Otherwise, if you want to hard wire them, then I suggest having a look at this site:
Installation Guides

Hope that helps.

If you have access to a test light and soldering iron, find a wire connection up under your dash and hard wire them into a cable that has power when acc switch is on, then route it to an on/off switch if you want.

VX Executive S2
haha each to their own tho, i just un-did the guards on the b-pillar n ran the wires to the pos n neg parts of the roof interior light. then just hide wires under kick panels etc. works all gud cos when u lock the doors, as the interior light goes off so does the neons, same with unlocking it at night, u get a nice glow of what eva colour u put in. i actually suprised myself on how well i actually did cos i was in the same dilema as u, but havent had any probs so far.

Every one has there personal opinion i accept that, but why bother posting if it is negative feedback? im not trying to be a 'ricer' if thats what you mean, ricer would be me having a typical blue neon
Neway, thanks for replies

Yes you are a noob for even contemplating this......

Its the question he asked its his car now get over it and mayb help him with his questions?

some models have the wiring that the calais use 2 light up the footwells so u can use those as VX executive said they will work just the same :thumbsup:

If u take off ur kick panels u'll find globe holders attached 2 the ends of the wires taped up 2 the sides i think they r orange with a black trace.
