I have read threads about installing them to light up when the door opens or the dome light is on but all the threads are on a 2011! I have a 2012 and it's different wires under than the 2011. Anyone know how to install on a 2012?

So under your 2012 there is no gray wire that goes into a gray connector?

Could someone else with a 2012 confirm/deny this?

YOUNGnRECKLESS · 01-08-2012, 06:06 PM

hmmm, would have asumed there'd still be a grey wire under there to connect to?

It's all the same man, just did it two weeks ago. Made a short video of my 2012 install...

There is a gray one but it's connected in a different one with much more wires than before

Okay I found a gray wire(s). There are multiple gray wires. So the one I need is connected into the gray port?

Thanks I'll let know if it works

So you put the red wire into the gray and your black wires on any ground wire?
