welcome - and I think you're right about the sore thumb on a silver car.

one more hint - don't use the license plate screws in the kit without spacers. They are too long and will dig into your paint. My pic shows using the shorter screws in the kit with 3 washers each.

the connections are made by tapping into the harness in the trunk , right side, using taps included with the kit.

here's a post with the pdf:

I'll resist the urge to quote myself in the above post about the performance of the unit.

Digging up this thread from the past...

I looked over the install instructions and noticed this: "Complete the anti-corrosion treatment process." What is the treatment -- is it something included with the kit, or something you buy/perform on your own?
