Last Screw Is Hidden here so you must YANK the cloth cover off

Pull footwell cover off. Unplug the speaker and footwell light

Time To Remove The Center Panels To Get To Cigarette Lighter To Get Positive Signal. ***FOR PRE-LCI, REMOVE SHIFTER CONSOLE AS WELL.
Remove The Two Screws And Pull Cigarette Lighter Out
Unplug Cigarette Lighter
See The Wire? This is the positive. U need to cut a couple foot of wire and connect it there.
