Hi,
I am new to reading/posting to forums, so please excuse any of my informalities. I recently stumbled upon your thread: DIY: Illuminated Footwells & Cupholders with Switch! I have a 2006 Matrix XR that I am interested in attempting this with. I was wondering if you would be so kind as to tell me if this is also possible with my year/gen?...(I just realized that I was reading in the wrong section for my year.) I have some hard-wiring exp, but not much...stereos, radars etc. Also, if this is possible, I saw where you mentioned using a diode. I haven't had to use one of those yet, and when I googled it, there seems to be several types. I am unsure as to which one to use. I asked the people at Radio Shack, but they were unable to tell me which diode to purchase for use in wiring the foot wells. If you're willing - any assistance that you'd be willing to provide would be much appreciated. My email is gberty@gmail.com. Thank you for your time.
