I use a Nikon D2X. For this project, I have used the 60mm f/2.8 macro, 28-70mm f/2.8, and 12-24mm f/4 lenses. All images are shot as RAW, colour corrected in Nikon Capture and then exported into CS3 for cropping and sharpening. I have a separate website for my photography here if you are interested: Photography by PS-RagE

On another note I have another question about the cargo light power under the driver’s side sill. I think I might have found the wire but not a 100% sure. When I probe it with the tester and the other to ground I turn the cargo light switch to the off position and I get power. When I turn it to the on position I get nothing.. Is this backwards? I did the same to all the brown wires and they were hot not matter what position the cargo light switch was on. I used a continuity tester. I hope that is the right device.
Is there maybe a way for you to take a close up picture of the wire you spliced into? I know it is out of your way but it would greatly help me.

Many thanks,
James
You want to use a volt meter. Put the black lead of your meter on the grounding points under the driver's side kick panel. It will wedge in there and be out of the way. Then you can use the red lead to find the switching power. These are the brown wires I was talking about. The one I'm tapped into is the rear one. You can see the front one has a "bandaid" where I poked it to check to see if it was the one or not:
