drat, my kit didn't show up today. Hopefully it is here tomorrow or monday. Anyway you need to access 2 wires located behind the Smart Juction Box located behind the Passenger side kick panel. It is not the same installation as the SN95. As I said, I will take pics during the installation.
I popped down to Blaine, WA this afternoon and picked up mine. Got free shipping but had to pay Canada Customs $30.00.
I installed them as soon as I got home. They sure look nice! I haven't put the trunk back together yet 'cause I want to disable the burst mode for the brakes. I wanted to tackle that tomorrow. Which two wires behind the junction box am I looking for?

Got my kit today and just finished installing it. Take a little longer when you have the Shaker 1000 cause you have to remove that darn thing. Anyway, here is what you need to do in order to disable the burst brake option.

Behind the passenger side kick panel is the Smart Juction Box (SJB). To access it you need to remove the door sill panel and then remove the kicker panel. There are no screws on either of these, they simply pop off. You do NOT need to disconnect any wires. Now remove the SJB by removing the 1 bolt at the bottom (10mm deep socket). On the back of the SJB is a bunch of connectors. The second one from the bottom is GREY. On that connect find a Grey wire with a black stripe and a Dark Blue wire with an Orange Stripe.

The drivers side signal lamp is the Grey wire with the black stripe. So obviously the Dark Blue with Orange Stripe is the Passenger side signal lamp. You need to run 2 wires from the SJB to the back of the car. Do not connect the wires to the SJB yet.

At the back of the car you you need to cut the green wires on both harnesses. For these instructions go to

http://www.webelectricproducts.com/products.htm
Click on "online Instructions" and then STS-1 Generic Installation Instructions

Scroll down to Installing the Control Wires.


Once you have the wires connected at the back, connect the wires behind the SJB using the Quick Splices that should have been provided in the kit. I know the kit says to use them at the back but that does not make sense. You do not want to cut the wires located behind the SJB.

Now turn on your hazzards and make sure they are all working properly. If they are not then you do not have the wires done properly.
Then check your taillights, brakes and signals.

I must say I love em. I really like having 3 brake lights on each side rather than 2. It looks awesome and the speed is perfect. For each time your front signal flashes the back has gone through its sequence so the timing is great.

Good luck with your installs. I sent pics of the installation to webeproducts. Here is a closeup of the connector you need to find.

Well the kit is working great, as I had expected. Went to the dealership today and they loved it.

I'll be tackling it soon. Running the wire from the passenger side kick panel to the trunk, once you get past the sill plate is it an easy task to get it into the trunk?
If I understand correctly you use the splice for the two wires behind the kick plate and you then can do the same at the tail lights and not cut any wires?

That is right. I didn't cut any wires and running the wires up to the front kick plate and connecting them to the back of the smart junction box is pretty simple. Took me less time to do that than removing the tailights

If I understand correctly you need to run two wires to the front. Did you wrap them in electrical tape to keep them together and protected?

Not sure why you would need to do this? How could they possibly get damaged when they are under the carpet?

Adrenalin, does this mean when you first receive these and its in burst mode, when it changes to solid only two of the three lights are on?
No. Burst mode makes them do the sequence once and then solid, all 6 lights. I didn't want burst mode at all. I just want them to work properly, but with all 6 lights and that is why you need to run the wires to the front of the car.

How long did it take you to run the wires? What did you have to take out of the car to get the wire back to the trunk?

Mine was on there shortly too. I think I was the second one. Adrenalin pushed me off the "featured" car.

Got mine Wednesady and will install tomorrow.
B) The new kit does not have a flasher. They did a re-design and no longer need a different flasher. Should make the install a lot easier.

Does this mean no more need to re-wire?

I have big hands & there is no need to pull the shaker unit. You just need a wrench to get the nuts lose then they come off with your fingers. I did the 3 light mod & love it. I am surprised that they don't have some kind of switch built into their unit that would give you the option of a burst or not. My .02.

Being I already did the 3 lamp mod I would maybe consider their universal unit. Seems to be cheaper then the 05' only unit.
