you could just tap it into your Parking Light fuse. That works.

I believe the Parking light fuse should make all your lights you named off flash. Just take the fuse out, wrap wire around fuse ends and plug it in.

it is a red/black wire in the kick panel. you can also go to the male blade in the fuse box. that is parking light output too. a third place you can get it is in the plug that gose into the dimmer switch. it will be red/black there too. good luck with the install.

if you are really suspicious of what screaminvtec said, then why dont you turn on your parking lights and meter it. turn of the lights, meter will drop, turn them back on, and it will go back to about 12v...

thats how i found the wire i needed, and mine was in the kick panel (almost all hondas are pretty much the same in about every aspect as far as that is concerned)...

so good luck..

You could grab it behind your hazard light switch. My preferred place is is under the plastic mold in the door jamb. For wire colors, I go to the 12volt or you can get them on the site I made.

My site was down? I must have been updating it. It only takes me 2 minutes though. Too bad I can never pay my *** bill on time.

i was saying that there is a male tab in the fuse box that is a parking light source. most hondas have them. as for the red/black at the dimmer. it is there as an input to the dimmer, and then the dimmer would control the dash lights, cluster lights, ect. hope that makes it a bit more clear. good luck.
