| I installed a couple of strip lights in the door sill, right under the word Riviera . I was wondering the best way to wire them up so that they turn on when the door is open. I was just going to wire them into the door light, but that invloves running a lot of wire for the lights. Is there an easy place that I can wire into. I looked at the fuse box and after removing the fuse and noticing that all of my lights still worked I figured I would ask on here | |

| you kind of have to wire them into the door light, because the lights are actually controlled by a lighting "module" (read - a small computer). | |

| IIRC next to the fuse block. But I don't remember actually and can't get to my manuals ATM. Someone else will chime in, no doubt. | |

| okay, thanks...might just be easier to wire into the door if it's by the fuse block | |
