If you have a picture of the wires that I have to use please post them :)

It's pretty easy. I had a harder time finding a suitable spot on the passenger side for the board to go on (ended up going on the fan case itself).

You'll see the pink and blue wires.

Thank you. I find the picture. One more thing. Where you bought the led stripe? eBay? And if yes do you have a link for it ?

They're LED boards, not strips.

Unless the seller changed the board, those should be the exact ones. I'm using those in the Yaris dome light, trunk light, and footwell lighting; as well as the dome and trunk light of my FR-S/GT86, and the trunk light of my brother's Prius c/Aqua.

And what about their life circle?? Do they burn easily??
I am looking right now for leds because I want to change all the stock yellow bulbs to white leds and so far I have read lots of bad reviews about the majority of them. I even saw reviews about melted boards What’s your experience?

Also I have an interesting question. If I replace the dome light with led bulb, the effect that the light closes slowly works? I don’t know how to describe, but when the light goes off, it goes slowly like it fades with the normal bulbs. I know it’s not that important but I do like it.

My experience with eBay LEDs are either hit or miss. These have been good. They do get warm after being on for a while.

However, for very important or hard to get to lights, I go to my favorite brand of LEDs, VLEDs. They're very reliable (still have strips from them that are 10 years old by now) and have awesome customer service in case you need warranty work (used once only).

Those boards will still do the gradient/fade effect. However, it'll be more in "steps" (I think that's the nature of LEDs).

Mmm vleds are out of the question for me because I don’t live in USA and the shippings are more expensive than the cost of the led itself so it’s not worth it

Also, as you wired them in the dome light harness, do footwell lights have the fade effect too?
