I plugged mine into the power fuse. If you need more help after that I can try taking a pic of how I did it
Thank you for this post as it made wiring the lights on the GM grille very clear and easy.

Default Finally got it installed...
Before and after photos of this project. Install was easy, but painting was a pain. It'll look much better once the Bilstein 5100s, ion 134 wheels, and 33s go on, but I'm getting there....Overall, I think the shape of this grill is much better than stock! This forum is an expensive habit.......

Planning on painting paramount grille black. Any feedback on how paint holds up on this grille? or if it chips easily?
