You Are Welcome! Although the Posts Are Fragmented I think All the Needed info is Now Here for Closure! 16 Years in the Making!

Please Share your Solution for the Brackets. I was Going to Use Large Fender Washers. They Are Large Washers with Smaller Holes. So Say a Thin 1 5/8 OD with a 1/4 Hole in this Case. And Then Drill to Fit Fixture. Use Some 2 Part Epoxy to Attach. That was the Thought Anyway!

Best of Luck!

Ambient lighting

Would it be possible to remove the Left & Right Rear Footwell ambient lighting, and relocate those in the front, so there would be (2) Footwell lighting on D/S &P/S? Granted you would have to extend the wiring, but all the electrical connections would stay the same. Really have no use for the rear footwell lighting, and would like to place those somewhere else.

If You Simply Extend the Wiring and Relocate I Don't see an Issue. I would Test By Just Adding Length of Wire Needed to Relocate to One Side and Test. Seems Simple Enough But Then There is Murphys Law!

Best Of Luck!

i aM pOSTING sOME hELP pdf's PDF'S For The Ambient Console Install. Maybe Some Repeats But Am Putting in One Spot. If You Need a Connector Pic Look For C Number and Request.

See Plugs 2280H For Ambient Power Supply. Pin 5 That is What I am Seeing!

Ambient Lighting
The ambient lighting system consists of the ambient lighting switch, the ambient lighting module, and the harness with hard-wired light
emitting diodes (LEDs) located within the front and rear footwells and the floor console cup holders. The ambient lighting is powered on
when the ignition key is in the run or accessory position. The ambient lighting module is powered through the electrochromatic (EC)
mirror circuit. The ambient lighting switch is used to cycle the LEDs through 7 different color combinations or to turn the ambient lighting
off. The ambient lighting module provides the necessary voltage to the LEDs to illuminate the cup holders and the front and rear
footwell areas.

I Ran Across This As Far as Interior Lighting. Except For The Cupholder Seems Like a Good Alternative!
