I wouldn't bother myself, but you need to find one that becomes live with the dash illumination. I cant' remember off the top of my head what colour it is. I'll check on my car.

If you remove the stereo and look at the factory wiring you'll hopefully find a grey/blue wire, this is the positive feed for the lights on dimmer for the radio. :wink:
