1) What Gauge of wire did you use for the extension?

2) Care to explain how you wired these into the fuse panel? I was under the assumption that these would just be installed the same way as the CCFLs...

1- 16ga wire.
2- Wire them into a circuit, all of which have a fuse, pick one that isn't used for a critical part of the car.
I chose to run a new wire from the battery to a fuse distribution block. Completely independent of the car.
