This is one of the comments left on WOL's write up. I think this is what you are looking for. Worked for me.

Good luck and you will love it! My favorite mod yet!

I had the same issues about the ignition and light wires, so I grabbed my handy dandy Fluke multimeter and took myself to school.

Here's the answer:

First remove the center console bezel to gain access to the wiring loom.

Switched Power:
Use the included scotch lock connector to connect the red-yellow wire into the blue-violet accessory power lead that runs to the cigarette lighter connector. Note: do not tap into the aux power port on the passenger side. it is always on.

Illumination Dimmer Lead:
Use the included scotch lock connector to connect the blue-white wire into the orange-beige ilumination power lead that runs to the square multi wire connector that attaches to the AC/Heat controls.

Straighten up all the wires so they are neat and out of the way, button it up and be prepared for a bit of compressor noise.

This worked for me on a 2010 Rubi...I'm not making any guarantees. Splice into your shiney new JK's wiring at your own risk.
