Default Interior lighting

I have a 2005 f150 and I want to add blue lighting in the cab of the truck lighting up the floors . So what should I get to do this? Every thing I look up is a kit for the whole interior and I just want to light up the floor

I had the op7 kit and that company is a mess. I cant tell you how frustrating it was, the product was awesome at first but over the course of a month LED's just stopped working and they shipped 2 defective boxes and continuously accused me of not knowing what I'm doing. They have no phone number and only communicate via email so that makes things even more frustrating.


Just a warning/experience as I know that's a kit that will show up in your search.

Use an add a fuse or t-tap for power. And a switch to turn on/off.

I used these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/371543508799

Tapped directly into the same lighting circuit as my interior lights. Created a harness so I could tap the wire on one side of the truck and supply a hot and ground to both sides from it.

Stuck two of them up under the dash, one on each side, using 3m trim tape. Pics show it pretty clearly, but they also do theatrical dimming, same as the inside lights.
