Hey where does the map light on the rear view mirror wire to..  Mine had about 3 inches of wire comeing off the mirror and then I have no clue where to take the new section of wire to to get the power from?

The wire runs down the driver side pillar post, and plugs into one of the "ACC" slots in the fuse box.
The light will only work with the key on.

Wow thanks Adams Apple...  I just want to thank you again... You have been helping me solve a lot of problems with my baby.  It is tough being young and learning things like this cause most people don't treat me with a lot of respect since I am young.  I will remember all this when I finally get her on the road..

You're more than welcome, Dante. Age has no bearing here. We're just Corvette people, plain and simple. If there's something we can do to help one another, that's what we do.

I ain't always right, but I always pitch in with whatever I got!


btw...my wife is from WV...are you anywhere close to Charleston/Albany?

Nope I am at the completely opposite end of the state.. I live at the very top of the northern panhandle between Ohio and PA. I can be in downtown Pittsburgh in about 40 minutes from where I live
