I wired mine with a 12 DC plug and it had power (red light) but would not come on. We had to return ours.

Your lamp probably needs to be hardwired into a recessed box. If you want to put a plug on it, it's not difficult. If you don't feel comfortable with that, ask someone qualified to help you. It's really not difficult but something you need to make sure is correct.

There is a removable cover on the electrical area, so it should be possible to hard wire it.

Don't buy this! My wire never worked a piece of junk. If you find one similiar to this that works please let me know. But again this is a DO NOT BUY item!

I had a very hard time inserting till I looked and saw that on mine, the wire had to be pushed in at an angle.

I did not install it because it is an AC transformer and not suitable for LED lights (which need a DC transformer.) There were no instructions with mine.

Sorry, I don't know what hard wiring means. I don't yet have it installed as the instructions were very minimal, and only one of the wires is color-coded. Have hired a handyman to install this week.

Yes. It is about the wiring which may not be long enough. A professional installer can do it. This has been a great product.

What I found was that the power connector (cigarette lighter adapter) needed to be spliced into the power connector before it would work. The wiring diagram leaves a lot to be desired.

I am still having a hard time getting mine installed. The instructions are completely worthless. It might as well be drawn in crayons. IT says to plug the wire in but there is no plug. All I can guess is that you are supposed to strip the wire plug off and then straight wire it but the instructions are worthless and the manufacturer says he can't support it because it was bundled by and third party and sold. I am disgusted with this.

Be careful with this item. I took mine to a professional installer and he couldn't install it because there was no wiring harness available. I was disappointed.

YES. Your power wire is big enough to use as a ground wire. Use one solid piece of wire for your ground, do NOT splice two wires together.

Actually, I returned the item as It was going to be to difficult to wire it. I purchased a GPS/Wireless version instead.

Sorry I don't have an answer for you. I had to hire an Electrian. It was way too complicated.

Oh I'm sorry I responded to the wrong item. But the same applies. I'm not sure what wires are needed for this. If you take it to a shop they will more than likely provide them. Sorry about that.

It's hit or miss on having a plug. Some do and some don't so it's a gamble. Wiring the plug is not difficult though.

When i opened this the socket was hard to pull apart. My struggles resulted in jamming a screwdriver in to seperate them. Eventually it came apart. I pulled through the wire, wrapped the appropriate wires bwhind the screws, put it all together and badda bing!
