Default Footwell lighting help

I bought LEDs and want to wire them so they come on when the door is open. I need the simplest way to do it without cutting into wires and such. Thanks!

The easiest way would be to take your door panel off and find the wires that run to the bulb in the door. That door light will come on when the door is open so simply sploce into that for your power source. Then just ground the leds and you're good.

Splicing into wires will be the easiest way.

If you dont want to cut wires just go to Lowes and get some of those touch lights. You know the ones you press to make come on. Just tap with your foot as you get in. That would be the easiest. Now do you want easiest way or best way. Yep, your gonna have to cut.
