Got some lights soldered :D Now I'm gonna let it cool off a little bit then go put them in. Doing the dome light, and thinking about the vents and feet. So exactly how do I hook them up, just solder the resistor to the existing wiring?

I figured it out! When i hit metal it blew the resistor, not a fuse. So i just used a different light and it worked. I'll post a pic later when it gets dark so you can see it better. Thanks again to Alex for the hookup!
