just posted a previous thread on how my neighbor gave me a brief scare, so now i want to know how to properly install blue led strips that has a sticky side so it can be simply placed along floor. i do have courtesy lights, drivers side is out, passenger side still works.

No one answered so Ill take a crack at trying to. You want the leds to come on with the courtesy lights? if so just splice the positive and negative of the leds into the matching positive and negative of courtesy light. Solder the wiring and put some heat shrink around it and you should be good to go. id probably pull the bulbs out of the stock harness so you see just the leds, put thats just personal preference.

You can actually just cut off the stock plug and wire in an LED strip to match. Like so:

Been thinking about splicing and putting a couple more strips towards the back!! :)
