Cargo Light Assistance please.
I have a 92 Cx and I would like to install a cargo light for my hatch area. I have searched archived and recent threads, and found nothing on what wires to splice.
Some have said there is a plug for it, but I haven't found one. My car is completely gutted right now, I'm installing black interior, and I'd like to wire this light up.
I have a light, some wires, and the plug for the light. I know where it sits, I just don't know what wires to hack into.
Thanks alot,
Jarrod

could wire into dome light that way you can light it whenever you want and have full lighting in car at once

I have experience in wiring, did my own B16 swap, but I don't have the diagram in front of me.

I would like for it to turn on when the trunk latch is undone. Like the stock Si.
Thanks for the help though.

i put one in my hatch. i tapped into the ground of the trunk warning light switch so the light could only come on when the hatch/trunk is open. power i got from the dome light.
