The more wire you have the more chance of it rubbing against something and shorting out. If a power wire shorts out it can be a big problem. With the switch on the ground side if the wire going to the switch gets pinched the worse thing that will happen is the light will stay on. |

The ground is on the right side of the glove box opening, on the metal frame.

This is a great DIY. I just finished doing the install - it was very easy. Thanks for the great instructions and part numbers. instead of a single LED, I used a 6X6 LED array that I got from Autolumination for $15. It lays fairly flat and puts out a lot of light.

I just did this install on my 2011 and I couldn't find an unstriped red wire. Only a smaller red wire with a black stripe.

OK and its just a solid red wire? Is it buried underneath the other cables in the harness? I thought I had looked pretty hard.
Also, when I put my glove box back together I don't think I did it right. Whenever I open it all the way it like jams and I have to jiggle it to get it to close again. I think what is happening is that one of the hooks/pivot points that hold the glove box in place gets jammed and then it wont close. Any advice? |
