[QUOTE="qurtrn10, post: 9557384, member: 38932"] Wayne, that looks great! I'll have to keep that idea in mind when I get to that point soon. Made a little more headway on the slider. I found where the wires from the factory switch plug ends. It actually ends inside the passenger side kickplate, and [I]does not[/I] run under the passenger side sill plate like i initially thought. The wires end in a factory female plug, and on the male side, the wires for the slider are not there, so in essence, it dead ends there. I know I could use a splice connector here, but I really want to take the extra time to make this look factory. How can I run new wires into the male end of the plug to continue the wires the way Ford would have originally? Here's a few pics to show what I'm working with: (Where the wires start - at the switch): [ATTACH=full]1201791[/ATTACH] (Where the wires dead end - in the passenger side kick panel): [ATTACH=full]1201792[/ATTACH] (The female side of said connector with wires going into the plug): [ATTACH=full]1201793[/ATTACH] (The male side without the wires, where I'd like to run my wires into): [ATTACH=full]1201794[/ATTACH] (The inside of the male side of the plug): [ATTACH=full]1201795[/ATTACH] I know that the red insert comes out, and that the wires can be pulled out afterward. I've never added wires to a connectionj like this though. Where would I find the blade part to mate to the female connector? Thanks so much for any help! [/QUOTE]
