So I connected everything to oem wiring.. grounded the outside wire it's the attached pic..i can't find anywhere to ground the inside wire though. I tried to ground where the instructional picture said also attached but, how can you ground something to plastic didn't work anyway..im also going to check the relay. But I'm done for today

Not sure what kind of kit you have, and why you connected it to the OEM wiring. My kit simply had the ground for the relay and the plug for the switch which is tied into the relay ground. Anyway, you should be able to ground it on a nearby bolt.

Just the oem style kit from Amazon all the plugs were the same as the factory plugs. I just plugged them up and grounded everything..im going to the dealer and picking up an oem switch and see if it works. I have all the fuses plugged into the right places in the interior and under the hood idk what's going on. But I'm going to start by getting a Honda switch then wiring harness

I'm guessing they show that ground point because the bolt is actually touching the metal behind the plastic. That should work. The problem is likely something else.
