Ok here it is, i mounted the white box, and the ground, then i mounted the lights and pluged them in, I ran the wire to the interior, grounded that, I connecte dthe white wire to the positive and the black to the negative but no dice, the battery connections are correded a little, so i dont know if its working, any ideas??
 






JayR, where is the switch at?? I emaile dyou this but I'll post it here just so people think Im helpful :). Describe to me how you've got it wired up? Should go white wire with the connector to the positive battery, the black wire with the connectors to the negative battery, those are coming out of the relay. Then you've got the wires from the switch, one is ground, one is power (which can be drawn from any fuse, mine uses the radio fuse so lights only come on when the car is on), and the other goes to the relay. So you should be pulling power from two spots, have two grounds, and the necessary wires going through the firewall.

So in other word, is your switch illuminated at all? It should have light surrounding the button. If that isn't illuminated at all, then your lights won't work...
