Ok here is the write up on how to install these bad boys. Sorry it took so long but better late than never!

The pictures should be in order with the instructions.

1. Here are the wires with the kit. Also don't forget to turn off the dome lights using the switch next to the headlight switch( this will make the wires you are working with "dead" so you don't get shocked or short out anything).
2. Locate the kick panel light which is behind the driver/passenger seat repectively. Pop the cover off using a small bladed flat head screwdriver (from the top is easiest).
3. This is what it looks like with the light opened, exposing the 2 wires needed for wiring.
4. Now pop open the plastic covering where the kick panel lights are located (It is held with only clips and pops open easily). This will allow you to run the door sill wires through the kick panel light opening.
5. Now cut and wire together the lights (the vehicles grey wire goes to the red wires of the sill lights and the black wire to the black wires of the sill lights) Don't forget to hook the kick panel light up with everything else.
6. I am old fashioned and used solder to connect my wires but you can use any type clip you like.
7. Next put the converter boxes under each door sill along with excess wires. The rear sill only needs to opened alittle bit to place the wires/boxes under them.
8. Test to see if you wired everything correctly, (turn on the dome light switch you turned off earlier) and open/close the doors. (this should activate the door sill lights).
9. Now you want to start putting it all back together. You need to line up the sill light over the kick panel to see how much slack in the wire you need. After you determine this I figured out a little trick. I placed some black electrical tape over the sill wire where it goes under the kick plate. This allowed the me a reference ponit and hid the wire from view.
10. remove all of the double sided tape covering on the new sill and stick the light on it. Place the new sill down in the correct position and adjust the slack in the sill light wire as needed. Once all looks good press the new sill plate down and the sill should pop into its place. Once yo have done this to both front and rear, go ahead attach the new sills securely with the provided screws in the kit ( I used my drill screwdriver but becareful not to screw them in too fast or you will strip the backing of the old sills).
11. Make sure all is popped back together and whola! The second side goes much faster and smooth.

Remember to take your time and it will all come together. Total time for me about 2 hrs.
