Marker wires for the grill LED's are right in the corner of the hood by the drivers side vent makes for easy tie in. My two cents!

This was a question I was going to wait on until I got my LED's in, but since you just answered me, I have a follow-up...

What about the passenger side? Is there also wires there, or should I run them across the back/firewall over to the other side?

I ran mine in the same flex conduit that the factory used from the passenger side to the drivers side alone the back firewall. You can get it at Homedepot in the electrical dept. if you check out the pics in the post I have posted a view of the firewall with the conduit running along it. There is two different post of pics in this thread.

This is very nice. Subtle and adds safety at night. I am definitely going to copy as well, sir. Thank you for posting!!

Haha, yeah a minor case... Just enough to feel like crop and go home from work.

Yeah, it's never good to feel like a crop, especially when the food you eat just plows through you. Ha Ha.

Just kiddin'. Hope you feel better soon so we can all see your installation. I'm curious how to remove the side vents without destroying them. I'm not good with delicate things...

Still don't feel up to par and wish I could ditch this damn cough, but this weather got the better of me and just got done wiring it up. Only thing different I did was I hid the wire from the passenger side to driver's side under the cowling by removing the four 9/32 (I think) bolts. I haven't mounted my boards yet, waiting till dark to see if I'll copy the OP or they have another place that may be brighter YET possibly be seen which I don't want. Pics later.

Can't wait to see how they turned out for you. The wife and I just love what I did and feel it really adds such a cool look to the truck at night. So remember it didn't happen without pictures!

Trust me, I'll get some! Slowly getting dark now, just matter of time.
