does the light strip hook up directly to the stock plug or is there splicing involved?

No splicing involved. Basically, plug and play

Yeah, you basically pull out the festoon bulb and replace it with the included adapter. I recommend getting some gloves and pulling out the whole housing first before replacing the festoon. The original halogen bulb gets pretty hot so it's safer to work on it once it's unplugged. It does take a little effort to initially disconnect the housing, though.
