2011 LS DIY ABL using EL WIRE? ANYoNE

I have search treads and been wanting to put ABL on my dash but i know everyone has been doing it on SS but still haven't seen one done on a LS. Do any one know if there is a tread out there for this? i already bought some of the equipment needed for this but just want to get a clear DIY for LS. Thanks

Thank Stieger and i seen this tread but i was told that those connectors are dead and cant be used for a LS, i was also told that i can tap into the wires that power the window swich to power the el wire and didn't know how that was going to work.

Yes, you'll need to T-tap into the window switch wires. It's super easy, just get some quick connects from Auto Zone
