Would It Be Possible?

You would connect the two strips in parallel (i.e. positive wire to positive wire and ground wire to ground wire). You could then tap the dome wires using tap splices (pictured below). Even though this is pretty simple, if you have never messed with this kind of thing before, it's not a bad idea to have someone who has give you a hand.

I'm not sure if I'm getting this right. Okay, so, with the passenger side one, I should splice it's positive into the positive of the driver side one, and the same with the ground? Then with the driver side wires, splice into the blue and pink wires accordingly? Hehe, I kinda don't want to call my friend over for a "simple" job like this since I don't want to take up his time and gas. hehehehe. Well, actually, I'll probably do this at a car meet and have one of my friends oversee what I'm doing. hehehehe.

So, I should order at least 4 of those tap/splice connectors? They're sold in pairs on v-leds.

You have it correct.

The splice connectors from v-leds are rated for 18-16AWG wire (which is correct for the car's wires that you are tapping onto). If the led strips have leads in that same size range, then you are OK. If they are smaller (24 - 20 AWG), then you would want tap splices that accommodate both (22 - 18 AWG for example). Auto parts stores typically carry a variety of tap splices.

Cool. I'll order the LED strips and two of the splice connectors from v-leds. I'll wait until they come in to see what gauge wire the leads on the strips are, then I'll go to an auto parts store to get the right connectors. Thanks CTScott!
