john.

u dont get teh wiring part? i'll try to explain a lil better then..
well in my write up this is wut i wrote:
"...there should be 4 wires that go to your dimmer switch harness, solid red, solid white, red with a black stripe, red with a white stripe. Strip the RED WIRE WITH A BLACK STRIPE, and tap into it with the RED wire from the inverter box that came with your indiglos."

If you don't understand this is what i mean. The red wire with a black stripe is connected to ur dimmer switch. U take a wire stripper, or a lil pair of scissors or army knife or whatever, and cut off a lil peice of rubber, so u expose the wire. Now you take the red wire from the inverter box (the thing that comes wiht ur indiglos), and u connect that to the exposed wire. The ground (black wire) that comes with the inverter box just goes to a ground source. I wrote it in the write up.. u just basically unscrew a bolt that's connected to a main body part, put the wire under it, and screw the bolt back onto it so it holds it (make sure the copper from the wire is touching the metal body.

the easiest way to do it is... connect the postive and negative wire to your parking lights.. when you turn on your lights its should come on...
