How to hook up your LED for LED lights for the Windshield washer

Hey I have blue LED lights for the Windshield washer and I really didn't want to get caught up with them on so what I did was that I taped my alarm LED light.

HOW TO HAVE LED LIGHTS WORK WITH YOUR ALARM LED LIGHT (pimp stuff)

1.) When you already installed the sprayers looking at the engine room looking at the left sprayer you will see 2 wires, a red (+) and black (-) you will also see this to the right sprayer take the black
(-) wire from the left sprayer and tie it to the red wire (+) from the right sprayer making a parallel circuit you should cut the black and red wire so it would be enough to goto the right red wire. You also will see a lot of extra wire if you don't cut it.

2.) So you should see 2 long wires a long red from the left and a long black from the right side of the sprayers then you should put the wires together and use black tape and tape them together do a spiral effect to have this nice looking spiral effect on the wire

3. Inside of your car
you should go under the drivers side and see the panel that is held by 2 screws take them out and pull on it and the panel should come off nicely you will see the white little thing that makes that bing noise when you leave your keys, and lights on all you have to do is unplug it then move the panel away then you should find the hole for your accelerator line and poke at it with your fingure,hannger anything to go thru the fire wall then feed the spirl effect wire in the hole.

4.) By popping out the cruise control button with a screw driver then use your finger to pop out the alarm module and you will see 2 wires to the module just splice them (do not cut them) and put the 2 wires from the led lights to the alarm module (since it's DC that we are dealing with you don't need to know what color to what just put it on and use black type to finish)

5.) put every thing back to normal and your done

6.) What the LED would do
When you open any door the LED light would flash (keys out of ign.)
when you arm then car the LED light would be a solid light then couple seconds later it would blink again like the alarm light inside and your set to show how the lights

Any walk-through with "lots" of images, I'm a lil' slow Better to be sure then sorry. It sounds cool though, I rather do that. I was going to wire mine to a switch just so I can turn it on and off. Right now they are inactive, two tickets already @ $110 Canadian each. Damn lights only cost like $20!

By they way, I don't wanna walk out to my car and find the battery dead. I get this enough from leaving my neons on which are hooked to the dome lights. You have any problems with this?

Well, there would be 3 leds flashing, L/R Nozzle + Alarm... I dunno??? I'll give it a try anyways, guess there shouldn't be any problems cause I see lot of the honda guys leave there headlight strobes on.
