I want to get the lighted faceplate kit for the Lightning that's on this link...

The kit that it requires you to buy, FMK550, looks like it was meant to be mounted with the opening at the bottom, thus requiring the lettering on the faceplate to be on the bottom.

I keep seeing these faceplates with the lettering on top. Do you just mount the FMK550 upside down and put the faceplate on it, or do you have to get a different kit. The guy selling these said he wasn't sure how people were doing it, but were ordering them w/ the lettering on top. Thanks in advance for the help!

I finally got my Maptech "Lightning" faceplate and LED bar in. How and where do you splice the LED wires? It didn't come with any install instructions.

Never mind. Figured it out on my own. Blew a fuse in the process.
