i want to wire them in with the headlights so when i turn on the headlights the shifter lights up.
oh dear god :rolleyes:

If you're going to do that, you are going to have to tie into a wire that is controlled by the headlight switch. Based on my service manual it's a yellow wire for the headlamp control, or the brown wire controlling the parking lamps when the switch is turned.

Have fun tearing the dash apart.

You can tap into the wire that is used to light up the fog light button. Pretty easy to get to.

You know what, if you can do it, more power to ya. I'm tired of all these (politically correct), by the book vette guys telling you what you can and can't do. You want yours to stand out from the thousands of boring lookalike vettes out there that you can't tell one from the other. Good look on customizing yours how you want! :mad

You should have a auxillary power plug in the center console for a cell phone to be hard wired.
