Humount Wiring I'm planning on ordering a Humount w/ LEDs,and a new receiver. My question is how would I wire it so that the LEDs is on when the car is on. I'm not an electrical guru but I could always get someone to help me. I looked on a couple threads and couldn't really find any info unless I wasn't looking in the right spot. Any info would be awesome.

pretty straight forward, since its just LED lights, connect it to the radio harness.
On every aftermarket harness you have several key wires
Yellow= Constant battery power
Red= Switched power
Black= Ground
so to wire it so the lights come on with the key on connect the power wire of the humount to the red "switched power" and the ground to the black "ground" wire.

Aftermarket will be plugged into the OEM black connector, no adapter harness will look like a hack job. If it's an aftermarket one, you'll see something like this:

What I did for the HUmount was to splice into 12v switched and the illumination wire, so it only comes on when I turn the headlights on.
