Ok well nothing worked...... Haha I spliced into 4 wires nothing lit up. Then I figured well the wires to the dome aren't grounded it they're not screwed in..........(blew a fuse while screwing in the dome lights) got late so I put everything back together and replaced the fuse.......... I'll try it again on Saturday.
