OPT-7 Sidekick Running board LED Strip

[ftb3]

I have search back a few months and see lots of threads about footboard/interior lighting and those are helpful for finding the dome light (unless you have a 2022+ or 2023 Silverado/Seirra like me lol).  

 

My concern is finding the other wires required to connect these.  I'm not clueless on how to connect the wires, just want to be more cautious on doing it on my brand new truck, and make sure I have the right wires.  

 

According to their diagrams they need:

12v+ Door assist - I assume this turns on the white light when doors open

12v+ Parking Lights - no idea what these would do?

12v+ Turn signal - flashes with turn signal

Ground

 

My main question is are all of these available in the A pillar? if so, anyone happen to know which wires or have a diagram/picture?

Lots of great information here. Have enjoyed reading other threads!

 

Thank you so much in advance

You ever get an answer or were you able to figure this out? I have OPT7 lights pairing with powered running boards on a 25 Silverado. Curious what to hook the door assist light with.

I am hoping to get a set of these myself. From what I have seen I am planning on running all the wiring to the rear of the truck and tap into the turn signal wires used by the tailgate light bar and the door assist into the truck bed lights.

I’m pretty sure the turn signals and brake lights are tied together so when you hit the brakes you’ll light up as well. I was going to do that but decided to just run the wires to the headlights and tap the wires there. Works great and it’s basically just as difficult as running them to the rear of the vehicle.
