Hardwire led footwell lights


Recommended Posts

Posted

First let me apologize for starting a new thread on this topic. All the threads I found suggested tapping the wire in the bcm and the search function of this site blows as we all know. I don’t want to tap the bcm because I want the install to be easily reversible. I have fuse taps/addafuse that I would prefer to use because i can rip it out and plug the original fuse in thirty seconds. My question is which fuse should I tap to have the lights only turn on with the ignition on? I think I need a 10 amp but suck at electrical so I also want to know how to tell how many amps I need so when I try to hardwire my dash cam in the near future I don’t have to start another thread. Thanks all in advance.

Ok you need to first know how you want the lights to work. There is already a rap wire in the drive side fuse box. All you do is push a spade terminal over the post. But this is post will not work off the dome likes if you want it on and off with the door opening

Meant to add I only want the lights on with the key in the ignition

So that is a rap wire and it is retained radio wire. There is also ground,power,and acc in the large connection box on the driver's floor. I wired a relay and grabbed all those posts for control to my gauges. Again just a spade connector and you push it on easy to just pull it off.
