wiring the lighted sun visors

Post by lilolneon » Mon May 01, 2006 1:44 pm

anyone have any ideas of where to tap it into? it only has 1 wire...

i snipped out the wiring harness for them and the visors saturday froma picknpull from a 1gen and YES!!! They WILL Fit. The visors are the exact same! best part is, 2 of the hard parts to paint are already black!!! the Hold Bar and the right angle pivot piece. the rest is tan tho and the cloth is a little dirty, but thats going to get removed and redone :-D

anyway... back to topic... anybody have any ideas how i should wire these?

Then it'd only come on when his dome light was on.

You need to wire them to a switched 12v source like a sunroof where it only works when the ignition is on and isn't controlled by a switch on the dash like the dome light.
