Someone asked me how easy it was to install the BigWormGraphix's LED interior lighting.
It was a fairly straight forward install. It took me about 15 minutes. BigWormGraphix provides everything needed for the install.
First, you use their t-clamps to connect to the wire clusters underneath the steering wheel. If you look underneath the steering wheel, between the footrest and the brake and look up, you'll see the wire clusters I'm referencing.
The install is easiest if you disconnect the clusters which is done by pressing your thumb against the tab and pull down. It also makes it easier if you remove some of the tape around the wires to expose more of the wire being clamped, allowing it to bow out a bit more.
Once the clamps are on, feed the longer wire cord through the center console. The gap is found right where the carpet dips down. I would say its maybe three inches where the kneepad ends. Just push it straight forward and pull out the other side.
At this point, plug in the wires to the clamps. They should turn on as long as the dome light is on. If the dome light is off, open and close the door or turn the knob to turn the dome light on.
To mount, find a solid plastic piece in front of the foot/leg ac vents. You'll want to mount to a solid piece, not one that has the grooved feel where you think these would go. Once you know where you want to mount, clean with alcohol, apply the adhesion promotor and peel the tape on the back of the lights and stick.
I used only one of the zipties provided, and used that to connect the wire to the wire you'll feel it you stick your finger near the gap where you fed the wire through. I can say it wasn't needed but used it just to give me a piece of mind.
