I have a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe and I decided to pimp it up a bit. I'm trying to do the pimping by myself but I am stuck with something maybe and someone can help me.

I have bought some extra colorful LEDS that are supposed to glow when I turn the engine on -- which turns the front lights on.

Therefore, as you might guess, I need to connect these LEDS to the wires that go to the car's front lights so they get turned on as well.

Problem: The lights of Santa Fe have a plastic cover that I need to rotate and remove in order to expose the bulbs and their wires. Therefore I cannot connect these wires to my LEDS because the cover exit and needs to be closed.

How do you think I can do that? In another way, how can I connect my LEDS to the wires of the front lights?

Do you think I can get rid of the cover?

I would guess the same problem should occur if someone installs back up sensors because the brake lights are also covered too with a plastic cover.

Any suggestions? Please help. Thank you,
