I put in two LEDs above my cup holders to give me some light when it's dark. Right now there tapped into the cigar wires but that means there only on when the ignition is and I only want them on when it's dark.

Does anyone know any close wires behind the bezel area that I can tap into for them to go on when I turn on my headlights and fog lights?

I didn't wanna buy the oem cup holder light piece since I had some LEDs laying around.

Thanks.

I had a little plug behind the center dash piece that was for the OEM cup holder lights. Since it wasn't being used, I tapped into it. The LEDs only come on when the headlights are on. Did you not have that plug there?

I don't believe the 06+ have cup holder lights.

There is a orange wire in the wiring harness that goes to my radio that controls lights in stock radio. My truck is a "97 so yours my be different. Since you installed led lights I would think even with your dash lights turned almost all the way down they should work properly. I THINK? Good luck.
