If any others know anything as well post in what it is and little how too..... I will be adding pictures and little write up as well later on or just post your link that you have wrote up on. This is to compile it all for the newbs or just guys that don't know like myself

You actually only need to do either the driver side or passenger side green wire not both fwiw.
