I got the footwell light installed and read all threads concerning this using the search feature.

I don't like the lights to go on/off with the door. It is useless during daytime anyway. I like to find a way to wire them so they can be turned on/off with the parking lights/headlights. I like the lights to be on at night where it can be better appreciated.

Can somebody point to me which color wire and where I can tap into the parking lights wiring (or any alternate wiring)? Is the wire in the same harness where the lights are normally tapped into? I would like to keep the mod closed to the original one so no engine bay ideas... :D

Thanks man. BTW, is the bundle where you found the black with red stripe wire the one behind the footwell plastic panel or the one just above it?

i dunno about florida, but up here, you should probably put a kill switch in, cuz driving around the lights on might be illegal (just in case you get pulled over or something) ;)
