i am a vent LED master. Oznium.com is a great site and i have tried to match the quality LEDs they carry with other sites for like 4 years and have been unsucessful. There are a couple ways you can mount leds in the vents but a good and common way is to forcefit the LED into a drilled hole. So fit a drill bit a lil smaller then the led and make sure u silicone the top of it so you dont get any shorts and what not.
the hookup is very easy as well. Always, always, always, run new power wires unless u have to tap into your cars pre-existing wiring for a certain application. U need to drill a small hole through your firewall and run the power the wire. You should run both the pos and neg wire from the battery to your accessory. Make sure you put a fuse on the wire so you dont burn the LEDs out. Also, make sure that run the LEDs in series so that it hits about 12-13 volts, IE red leds are like 2 v so wire up 6 or 7 in a row. Run them to a switch located at your convenience and you shoud be good to go. LED's can be messy because the leads are fragile and when connected to wires promote a lot of movement and can break which suxors.
If you have any other questions, i have done this type of work before so hit me up on AIM - SuBZeRo69069
