What i did on mine was i stripe the wire and with the volt meter i found out with side is neg and pos then with a tiny flat screw driver i pinch the strip wire with the bulb.. I'll post pictures later if you want. Now my Cold Cathode turn on base on where ever i have the dome light switch setup.. like right now they turn on when i open the door and if i flip the switch to turn on the dome light they come on too...

My car is a 2001 zx3 i don't know if is the same on a 2003 .. but here's how i did it..


1. Remove the dome light with a tiny flat screwdriver

2. After have the dome light pull out alittle with screw driver just pull it out by hand

3. Now attach the wire on the bulb like picture below- just remember which wire you connected. I pinch the wire using the same tiny flat screw drivers.

This color is from the wire i use to connect the cold cathode..
Possitive = Gray
Negative = Gray/ Black Stripe

Here's a link for the 3rd picture in 1600 x 1200 you can zoom in more..
