    Get an led toggle switch of your choice.
    I used this IIRC: SPST 20A/12VDC Illuminated Toggle Switch with Blue LED : Toggle Switches | RadioShack.com

    You will also need a ATM Mini fuse tap add on. You can find those on ebay.


    ...and finaly what you want to power. I have this LED kit: LED GLOW 4pc 7 COLOR LED INTERIOR LIGHT KIT.
    Also found on ebay.


    From there the wiring is pretty simple.

    Fuse Tap:

    umm, So what about this AUX hole you have going on. how exactly did you do it? how much was it? and most important thing of all..can a complete newb to anything electrical do it? I'm looking into buying a HU (just because i need an AUX) but have read about a lot of issues it has with the DIC and steering controls and then of course all of the 12v power and junk.... i saw a couple posts about the AUX people added to their OEM HU and thought i should investigate this before i go out and buy a new hu, dash kit, antenna, and how knows what else. sigh... whys this car have to be so complicated... i just want to have a AUX port! is that such a difficult thing to ask for
