I'm in the process of installing an alarm on my car. It's just a generic alarm just to help me out a little. Anyway, I would post in the Audio/Security forum but I never get any replies so I figure I'll get more answers in here, the Integra forum..Being that I have one.

Anyway, I got every problem figured out except for one. I can't seem to find the connection for the dome light. My problem is: I need to find the easiest and closest connection access to the dome light so that when the dome light turns on, the alarm goes off. I "could" Mickey-Mouse" it and run a wire from both door triggers, but I figure if the dome light comes on, it'll be much easier.

I already know what wire I have to use to connect it to but I don't know where the connection is that I should make. Does anyone know where the dome light wire connection is. Perferably around the steering column or near/by the fuse box?

-Thanks

 

On my alarm, I connected the door trigger wire to the driver's side door switch wire. It was a Green/Red wire that runs through the driver's side door sill to the kick panel. With that connected, even when passenger's side door is opened, the alarm goes off.

 

There is a harness up inside the driver side kick panel, near the cruise control brain box. This harness contains the power door lock wires (I assume you know which one that is), and also contains a wire for the domelight. I know because when I unplugged it to try to diagnose a problem I had w/ my alarm not locking the doors, the domelight also went out. I don't know which wire exactly it is, and I don't have my Helm's manual handy, but you should be able to find it.

 

Thanks guys... I'll be sure to look out for those two parts.. Does anyone else have any tips?

-Thanks.
