I want to run a 48" or 60" amber light strip down both of my running boards. I would like them to be on when the other parking lamps are on, and off when the park lamps are off.

Can anybody recommend a place to buy what I need? And where is a good place to tap into wiring to make this work?

Google "KC hilites cyclone"
I mounted (4) Amber ones under my running boards. When doors were opened or unlocked, lights came on. When doors closed or were Locked, lights went off.

Here is the thread I made when I did all these light modifications to my truck two years ago.
The amber light underneath the steps of the truck are a true Amber what you see in the picture as the color being a green neon color is misleading.

I got mine from F150Led's and hooked them up to the cargo light. They work like a champ!

OK I finally found what I was looking for. Recon makes what they call the "Big Rig" running board lights, and they work the same as your OE running/park lamps. That's exactly what the doctor ordered. Cool.

Recon makes some cool stuff and are proud of their prices. What turns me off is their warranty. Only 90 days!
Tread carefully on what you buy because if you end up purchasing let's say a new set of headlights for $700 and they start leaking 6 months down the road, it's clear that their warrantee is only for 90 days.

Yeah I would buy from F150leds.com but theirs ONLY works as entry lights.

I'm actually in the market myself for some high-quality LED strips. I would not mind put in a pair of Amber's under my running boards of my truck and tie them into my blinkers.
