Wiring Questions

This is pretty difficult without a wiring diagram, and I will get one as soon as I can, in the meantime, does anyone know which wire in the right footwell fusebox area goes to the interior lights (dome and map)? Not just the fuse obviously, but the actual controlled wire. I want to add a couple of footwell LED's (already converted dome light to Blue LED's, so the current (load) is way down.

Question

Is it necessaray to wire footwell LEDs to the dome light WIRE as opposed to the dome FUSE to have them respond the same (on/off) as the dome lights do ? I thought wiring them to the same fuse would do it ???

The BCM (Body Control Module) is the fuse/relay box on the front passenger side of the center console.

Dome Supervision gray - BCM, red 41 pin plug (X3), pin A10


you will need a relay

If that sounds like Chinese to you, I would suggest letting someone else tackle your wiring issues for you.
Not trying to offend you,but it sounds like you're not familiar with wiring in general.

Why is there a need for a relay to hook up these LED's? kram6

With a relay in the circuit will the LED's fade off like the dome light does or will it strictly be on or off? kram6
