I added the overhead console to my 2015 tradesman. There was no overhead wiring harness so I had to make one, which I used for cab lights and lighted visor mirror as well. I ran three power wires, one which worked all the time, one which worked only with running lights, and one which worked with the dome light. One thing I found out that I read nowhere else was that you needed two #8 x 1.5 inch sheet metal screws to replace the stock visor hook screws since the interior brace added about 3/4 of an inch to the thickness of the headliner. I also replaced the rear window switch with a rocker switch that operates bed lights and I drilled out the infa red temperature sensor hole (my truck didn't have one) for a blue led which shines down on the middle seat/console when the running lights are on.
