Has anyone installed some LED strips above their running boards and had them activate when the puddle lights come on? Looking to do this mod since I took off my factory mirrors and replaced them with tow mirrors. Curious as which wire to tap into along the door floor trim.

What/where is the wire for the cargo light accessed at? If that’s easier I’ll take that route.

I literally just ran the wire to the actually light. Popped the light housing off on the oustide of the truck to do the splicing, spliced into the power wire, ran that power wire along/under the liner and down the door/seat belt panel and underneath the floor panels. Took me maybe 15 minutes to do that. I did research beforehand which wire I should tap into, but got various results--decided this was the quickest way in this case.

What year is your truck? Used the wire color guide in this thread when I did mine
