I'm thinking what he did was connect an EL wire to one inverter, and place the inverter inside the door panel.. Start at one end of the panel and start running the wire around (with the power wire under the panel). The other end of the EL wire should have an end cap, which would be tucked at he opposite ending point of the panel. Hence, no exposed wires. The wire he used has a "tuck tail" used specifically for sewing onto fabric, which acts much like the tuck on the fabric piping, this is what keeps the wire snuggly tucked into the panel..am I explaining this coherently? I think I understand how he has this set up. But they way it is powered into the window power wire doesn't allow independent use of the EL wire.
