just run the wires down through the dash and underneath the console to where the fuse panel is under the steering wheel, it may take some time to fish it through, but it'll slip through there.

connect the + wire to a fuse in the panel such as your dashboard lights, and the - wire to a nice peice of metal, thats all.

Wrapping wires around fuses = ghetto. Get a $5 soldering iron and solder it into a 12V source for a solid install. www.jdmfan.com is a great source for wiring diagrams and tech info.

whatever, its alot easier than trying to solder it up, especially if you dont know how to solder correctly.

as far as the wires go, if worst comes to worst and you cant run em without cutting the dash, notch a piece of the shroud to clear the wires so they can make it down to your fuse panel.
