You need to thread the wires for the lights through to the body of the car - you do this through the grommets that are visible when you open the door. It is a real $#^#%^&$^*!$!$# of a job too so be warned. From there you need to get a hold of those wires where they enter the car (down in the footwells, LHS comes in behind the ECU, RHS comes in just near the accelerator pedal), and wire them into the courtesy lights under the dash. It's not an easy job to do, more fiddly than anything, but the result is worth it.

Yep, you should have 2 wires coming out the back of each of the lights, just wire them up in the same order to the ones under the dash.
