I have the dome light with map lights, sunroof, and navi. So, if you have this as well, it *should* be the same. If you take out the assembly, you should see two connectors, one 3-pin, and another massive one that houses many more wires.

On the 3-pin one, there is a turquiose wire (not the dark blue one). That is the positive wire. The dark blue one should be the ground. (check first before you start splicing!!!)

HTH!
Okay, I'm really confused...
Is the turquoise wire you're referring to on the back of the fusebox or the front? I played around with the fusebox again yesterday, and I still can't get it out or find the lead that goes to the dome lights. I thought this was going to be an easy install, but it doesn't seem to be turning out that way...
