    Getting ready to remove the panel to show the wires today after work.
    You have any pics or tips on how you guided the passenger wire over to get to the driver side?

    you can also run it lower but in the same manner. I ran some wiring in similar fishing but ran it lower and behind the lower center area. I had everything out but did not feel like pulling the gauge cluster at the time. As long as you have the lower console area its easy to fish some wiring to the other side.

    The flash washed out the color, is it pink there?

    Not all vehicles have all the wires/systems.

    I just ran mines behind the glove box and radio, similar to post#24. I didn't have to remove the radio, used a fish tape to run it through.

    I used a multimeter to check the continuity of the wires just to make sure I had the corrects ones.

    I’m going to give this a shot.
    I believe it is pink. So I should follow that to the bundles of wires where @Ryan2103a pointed out. I’m stoked, hopefully everything goes swell. Unlike my cut up hands from removing spark plugs today. Gotta wear gloves more.

    Check the opposite connector, it should have the slot empty. You could crimp a 090/2.3II terminal to the wire coming from the doors.

    It's the type that fits into the empty slot on the connector.

    These are female. I don't know what the visible connector side has.

    I was going to splice into the wires mentioned by @Ryan2103a. I don’t really understand you’re method though. I found this video to grasp the connector you’re speaking of https://youtu.be/OwjVZ_sMl6o

    My method was good enough for me but the proper and professional way would be to follow @caribe makaira method. He knows his electrical stuff :bowdown:

    OP, what ever makes it easier. If you use T-taps, taped them to the wires so they don't move/bounce and cut the wire they are tapping into.

    It is easier but I’m just not well knowledgeable about your method. Can you elaborate the process? Electrical for dummies :bowdown:
