Cargo lights with interior lights

[PFTX_5.3]

I've got a buddy with a f150 and I like that when he opens his doors his cargo lights come on. I was thinking that it'd be pretty simple to do that on my truck with a diode in the BCM plugs. With that being said anyone know which pin is for the interior lights?

Boost Auto make a wire kit for this. They have a video that shows this.

I already have this installed, my cargo lights come on when unlocking the truck at night. Because of my job I am constantly grabbing tools and parts out of my truck when it's night but I dont lock it and unlock it every time so cargo/reverse lights dont come on. I would like to have it set up where when I open the doors it triggers the cargo lights because they are tied to the dome lights with a diode in the BCM harness (same as cargo with reverse) I just dont know which pin is for the dome lights.

Does your truck not have the work light switch?
