Quoted from F-2NIRO:my friend made me pictures of the location he chose to connect the eyes.
here is a photo to locate the card that he says to me is the 'sensor card' of the crate.
(encircled in red)
closer
look the J1 connector
he had plug the positive ( red wire off the mod ) on the grey /yellow wire and the négative ( black wire of the mod ) on the black wire of the connector J1Hope this helps you
So, just to make sure I understand: I splice into those two wires?
Got my kit today! I’m two rum and cokes deep though, so I’ll probably do the install tomorrow 
Alright... what did I eff up? I did black to black and red to yellow/grey at J1. Both on the side of the connector closest to the boney beast.

*edit - I undid it, and the game’s back to operating error free, but I want to get these eyes going. So do I need to splice into the other side of the j1 connector... or is it one on one side, and the other wire on the other side (and if so, does it matter which?)?
Sorry for the question... I’m still pretty dumb when it comes to this kind of stuff.
Quoted from F-2NIRO:am not sure to understand, can you put pictures of your connection
I hooked up black to black (left wire), and the red to the one right next to it (grey/yellow).
Quoted from F-2NIRO:when you cut the wires to connect those of the mod, there is always continuity.
for example, when you cut the black wire to connect the mod's black wire, the two original black wires are well connected to each other
in total, it's three wire, the one you cut, that's two, and the mod, three in total.
I do not see well on your photo
also check if you have 12 volts between the gray / yellow wire and the black
Yep, that’s what I did (the photo I posted, however was after I reversed it). I’ll check the voltages.
Quoted from F-2NIRO:you have to put the red pin of your controller on the gray / yellow wire and the black pin on the black wire and you should have 12.9 v and not -12.9v
Hmmm... that’s what I did. Maybe I have the setting wrong on my multimeter. I stepped out for dinner, but I’ll check again when I get back.
Woohoo!!! It’s working now.
Apparently, I just had a weak connection between the wires. I’m going to solder them together for better continuity, now that I know it works.
Quoted from Dr-Tommy:Nice work to you guys that already installed it. What did you do with the original eye lights? After removing the 2 sockets from the bracket, did you keep them somewhere around the head, or remove them completely?
I actually left the sockets there, and just removed the "eye" bulbs. Then I wrapped the empty sockets in electrical tape. It all fits.
