Vent Glows: Yes or No?

So that will essentially mean that they're always on when the car is on? I was thinking of trying to get them wired with the headlights but something tells me that would be a lot harder. And I guess they'd be mostly not visible during the day anyway.

This might not be too hard...

**Codefox** · 11-16-2009 11:07 PM

Oh, and stupid question...I would just hard wire it in or somethign?

as long as you're not connected to a security power source or directly to the battery they shouldn't be on if your car is off. You could power them off your accessory but have them turn on with your headlights but thats a bit more wiring. I was thinking something like an aviation switch or even if you can find a really cool dimmer switch, OH! you could just wire them into your dash dimmer and put in a toggle off switch incase you don't want them on sometimes.

Aviation switch probably works

David,

You've got the heated seats on your GT right? I was thinking Mike from Importshark sold some cool switches that fit in the OEM seat heater locations but I don't think you'd want to give those up. Maybe someone like a car audio/custom shop could do the install or at least recommend a way to do it?

Remember the Internet is your friend lol

Hmm, I could check a shop but I'm thinking I'd have to pay like $100 (at the least) to get it installed. I do want this done right though!

DD does vent glows on the Tibby you could ask them how they do it, can't be too different.

**CMcCane** · 11-17-2009 06:01 PM

Good point. Check with Paul!

**Codefox** · 11-17-2009 07:20 PM

That was the first thing I did...but he didn't really have much for me

**Paul J. McCain** · 11-17-2009 09:26 PM

I'm just not sure how the electronics work behind the dash... all you need is a positive and negative, though! Pretty simple.
