pull the switch from the bezel and get a tester out. Turn on the lights and play with the tester and the dimmer. Find the dimmer wire - usually tan or brown or something like that and go from there.

let me know.

Better be careful tapping into the wiring on these new 06's. There a can bus system.

If it is a BUS system then there wouldn't be any wires it would snap onto the bus. Thanks for pointing that out. I've not worked on an '06 so...
