Alright guys, I had some chance to open it up and show the wiring of it.
This is an overhead shot of the headlights, notice there is an orange strip between the bumper and the lights, thats where I slid in the LED ribbon, fits pretty perfectly.
Now, you're going to want to wrap up your connectors pretty good so it doesn't get wet, and run it up the corner, leading to the hood (left side of this picture)
Now, install it for both driver and passenger side, when you have those ready, run the passenger side wires to the driver's side, where the fuse box is. I tapped the positives together and the negatives together to keep things neat.
Now, look the the left side of the picture, I have my needle nose pliers gripped on the "clearance lights" fuse. you can choose whatever fuse thats 10A you like, but this particular one would make your LEDS come on when your yellow DRL lights are on, or when your headlights are on. PULL This fuse out CAREFULLY, its hard to pull it straight out, so get an angle and pull the sides.
(this picture is upside downs BTW)
that little red fuse has 2 sides to it, each with a little hole exposing the contact underneath, it'll be enough for your to solder through the top of it, do so and attach a wire to it. (or you can buy minifuse taps)
Now plug that little fuse back in and twitsy it good with your 2 positives from the lights, than wrap that **** up real good with electrical tape.
Now all you have to do is twitsy up you negative ends and connect it to any Nut in the car (since all metal nuts work as grounds). Clamp it under a nut that isn't exposed to water.
Turn on your lights, test if it works, if it does, find clean ways of running the wires from your passenger side lights over to the fuse box (avoid any hot areas or the hood clamp). to be safe, I wrapped all my **** up with electrical tape, it also makes it look cleaner also.
Here are some finished product pics, it's a pretty moddest mod, barely noticable so I don't think cops will pull you over. I do suggest that you get "neutral white" LEDS instead of cool white, unless you light purple lights on your car. I bought 3 foot worth of ribbon LEDS, and cut every 21 LEDs, leaving you with about 8 inches of strip left over.
