Quick question: PUDDLE LIGHT WIRING!

I wanna wire up my puddle light so that they come on with the side markers but Im not sure how to! I was planning tappin it directly to the side marker itself but I can't seem to get the wire into that location!
I have a ground I'm just looking for power!
Would anyone know where I can run the wire to find the side marker power source

Ps: sorry if this was already answered some where I'm just in a rush and I need to get this done thanx in advanced

If you really want to do this(which may be illegal?) I'll look at the wiring diagrams and find out where the side markers come into the cockpit and see what color wire and connector they are on.



Okay no guarantees, but if you find the black wire with a red stripe coming off one side of the 10A taillight fuse, then I believe this is the one you are after for power only! You need to find your own ground(as you've done).
The other side of this 10A taillight fuse shouud be green with a white stripe and you DO NOT want that side.

Personally, I would find which side of the fuse you want to be on, then just stick the wire in that side(black/red) to see if it does what you want, then you can think about wiring correctly.
