lights that are fitted on the side skirt, to illuminate downwards to show what you step in. Looks nice on a big body car, im looking for someone who has installed it on there dome light and im trying to see how they wired it to the dome light.

LED lights don't really require that much power to light them up. So you can just tap into the 2 wires off your footwell bulbs.

if they are led puddle lights, they dont draw much current so you are safe at not overloading the circuit.

i wired mine up directly to my center dome light circuit board.
