Hello,
I try to do additional trunk lights (like ciclo), but I don't know, where I should connect wires from lights?
Ciclo's intstruction: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2nv91 ... FTMFk/view
Where I should connect the beam to the red-black cable?
Do I need to connect one cable to the T5h on the left and the other to connector on the right side of the trunk?
I found these some pictures:

Is there a better way to connect wires?

The easiest way wuld be to just solder the wires to the wires going to the original trunklight...

Re: Second/central trunk light - where to connect the wires?
Hello
I connected a wire to the red and blue and I added mass to the "hub" that is also seen in pictures ...

But the light bulb does not work and I remain on the interior lights
where did I go wrong?

Re: Second/central trunk light - where to connect the wires?
the 'mass' wire is T5h/1
the other wire is a PLUS

Re: Second/central trunk light - where to connect the wires?
most ideal would be a terminal 30 +12V. always fused.
if i remember correctly, you have a fuse box for your folding mirros. you can maybe take a wire from that fuse installation and guide it to the rear.
so the positive (terminal 30) goes to one wire, the other wire to T5h/1
then it will work

Re: Second/central trunk light - where to connect the wires?
If you want the second trunk light works like the original light and it is protected by the same fuse:
+ hook the positive wire (2) to pin number 2 of the original light
- hook the ground wire (1) to the red-blue cable (shown in the above picture)
Or if you prefer hook the two wires to the two wires original trunk light. As it has been said earlier.
Come on! it is easy.
