My tips are: Tap the wire with a red t-tap splice, the blue ones are probably too big. Buy the cool white bolt lights, they match the other lights exactly. You don't need to disassemble the black backing off the ceiling console like the OP did. Just remove the part you'll be drilling and make sure you drill directly centered on those tabs sticking out of the back of that piece.

Thank you for getting back to me. I took your advice and used a paper clip from the back of the plug. Made sure that I had good ground and, of course, made sure these new lights worked when plugged directly to the battery. I still find that neither gray wire has power when I open the doors. But I did find that the brown wire with the blue tracer did. I tested them all and a couple of the other wires had low voltage coming through when you open the doors. The brown wire was the only one that was exactly what I needed for dome lights. Not sure why this would be different on my truck, but it is. It was in the third slot from the bottom right in the plug when plugged in.

I have a 2024 1500 trail boss with base interior. I just tried the mod with the bolt lights, but neither gray wire in the right plug on the ceiling console gives any voltage when I open the doors. I don't understand how this can be possible because unplugging the right plug makes the dome lights go out, so I know it has to come in that right plug
