yeah i guess i will just try and figure it out... since there isnt one that tells on how to do it on a firebird, can someone tell me what the difference will be between a camaro and a firebird? I have a 99 trans am... would i just take out that little black box and solder a wire b/w the A and B connections?? Will that have no side effects? I want those to only come on with my headlights.

Alright I figured it out. Thanks for the help though guys but for anyone who runs into the same confusion I did, its actually really really easy... you just take out the radio, behind it there is a little black box, pull it out so that you can open it up... pop off the connectors (you have to pop out the little orange holder pieces first)... look at the connectors and they have letters on them and on the smaller connector find out where A and B are and just solder those together with a small piece of wire on the back of the board... it took me about 20 min and now I have complete control over ALL of my lights and NO side effects...

I see, but if your headlight switch is off (hence the amber lights off) do they blink on with the turn signal like any other car? And when the headlights are on, they blink off with the turn signal, right? I just want to make sure the results are what I'm looking for before I do it. Sorry to kinda repeat myself. Swat
