sport mode.

The ground is required for the light in the switch to work. You can use a voltmeter to find the hot lead.

For ground, you can tap anywhere that is convenient. The wire bundle definitely has a ground and illumination wire if you want to make it clean.

thanks, is there an easy way to remove the shift boot w/out damaging it? will be much easier to work with the wires with the shiftboot off or flipped upside down...

is the sport mode switch always illuminated?

Also if I use the illumination from the hazard light sw and the ground from it... should this work? or do I need to ground it to a different ground?

Thanks,

No- only when the lights are switched on. You should be fine with hot and ground from the hazard switch.
