Nice! I always have my parking lamps on just because it helps add a lil daytime visibility (did it all the time with fogs on as well with my 02)
I have a glowing charger too that would match perfectly
(Not my cable but its the same thing)

What brand/manufacturer? What actually holds it in place?

^ Here is the company I ordered it from. You want to get the power pack combo kit.

The wire on the dash board and door panels are help by itself. They were tucked into the tight space and the wire stays in place. The wire around the speakers, that was a bit more tricky. At first we used hot glue on the panel and after a week or so the wire peeled off. This time we thought outside the box. We drilled tiny holes into the door panel abound the speakers in that grove and placed a small zip tie around the wire and pulled it tight.

Looks great! I think it'd be much better if it were a darker blue as well! To everyone, Dodge Dart (don't know which models) has this. Comparing the two, very nice job!

That red looks sweet. I think that is the darkest blue they had. Its matches the color of my speed odometer which I was hoping for.

im kinda confused by what you are saying here.

Are you saying you tapped into the wire harness directly at the headlight switch?

for park lamps i think its a gray wire - and it would be fused at that point. OR did you tap into your interior light wire? because the park lamp wire would not allow the dimmer to affect the interior lights.

Just trying to understand because I am about to install a very factory looking ambient lighting setup to an RGB controller and want the lights to turn on whenever the interior panel lights are on as well as when park lights are on.

so which wire did you tap into?

i tried using a purple/white wire for what i thought was supposed to be park lamps because using a multmeter, it shows power in the on position and nothing when off.

but its not working for me to a relay.
