edit: Just did a DIY writeup:

I used Cold Cathodes 1 on the drivers side and 2 on the passenger side. For some reason the drivers side looked brighter at first so I put another to try to even it out. Turned out great to me. Pictures make the lighting seem a bit on the bright side, but in person its perfect. Comments welcomed![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

^- I know in this pic that blue thing is sticking out but I tucked that away after I noticed it in the picture. No one can see any of the wiring or mess unless they're 2-3feet tall anyway. Tripod was low :P

that looks great man,very bright. 2 thimbs up for doing it yourself
i had my installer do the same, wired up to each door. We used 12 LED tubes - one tube for each footwell (left over tubes from my boot install). And put matching orange leds in the map lights

I just got finished TRYING..... to do this and it didn't work.
Now it may be becuz My dome lights went out on me 2 days ago and I'm waiting for my new ones to come in. And I also checked all of the fuses as-well, they all work.. But if not.....
I can only asume that this is the connector you guys were talking aboutbehind the pillar..

First I tried to splice into the wires on the bottom part..... Nothing.
![](http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h67/dragone_2006/S5000276.jpg)
Then I tried the two on the top part of the connector....... And Nothing....

Please help....
