Ok thanks if I can't find plug I may just tap into wire or cut off plug and use butt connectorsI did something weird because of that price over the 700 unit. I'll try to find it shortly. If someone can beat me me to the punch?

08V70-HL5-A00, it's the back up alarm and you just splice into the wire or cut the alarm off and use the wireOk i ordered that number and it is just mounting kit , no wire
Ok thanks guys ! I thought about buying alarm and doing that , I like plug and play also , but for the cost may just cut and use some good butt connectors , thanks for the info08V70-HL5-A00, it's the back up alarm and you just splice into the wire or cut the alarm off and use the wire

I used this info to wire up my backup lights. I chose to have them come on when in reverse, regardless if the headlights are on or not as long as the ignition is on. I was able to simply use the two wires as hot and ground, and ran them to the lights. Easy peezey.
Thanks HONDASXS, your my hero!
Yes the way I understand already protected , I just connected wires no extra fusesStupid q. In your setup you just ran wires directly to the backup lights without adding an additional relay or fuse ...Correct? Because I assume the backup alarm wires are already wired into the fuse and relay.
If you ground the gray wire, the computer will throw a code indicating a stray ground issue. I forget the blink code, but I tried this and got the fault code.The White with black strip is key on positive. It joins the 15A accessory fuse. You can pull power from this for whatever you need while the key is on.
The GRAY wire however, is a switched ground. It goes to the gear position switch. It is ONLY grounded when in reverse.
You method is going to be tricky. I do not recommend grounding the gray wire outside its current circuit. If you do, it could send false single to the computer saying "REVERSE" when in fact it is not. I have not tested to see if it does or not but I think it will.
Oh... Try this, think backwards. Use the ON/OFF/ON in reverse.
Point 1 - IN - gray wire from plug.
Point 2 - OUT - To light negative.
Point 3 - IN - To frame ground.
Light positive wire connects to the white wire with black stripe.
Let me know what you get.
If you really want to do this, I'm pretty sure you can overcome the fault code by installing a diode in the ground circuit.If you ground the gray wire, the computer will throw a code indicating a stray ground issue. I forget the blink code, but I tried this and got the fault code.

It shouldn't. As the gray wire will not complete a circuit until it is in reverse.Are you saying the method below will cause engine codes?

Tonight i will try the this method

If that doesn't work, the electrician at the supply store said a on-off-on DPDT (six prongs) switch will work. So i bought one and will try it 2nd. Hopefully one will work and I'll document accordingly for all of us electrically handicapped people.
