    Hey, I just replaced my map lights with LED's boards that I got on ebay-Super Bright!

    The question is: do the map lights normally come on when you open the door to the truck like the dome light does (assuming it is set to "door")
    I feel like my map lights did and with the LED's they don't, but now I am doubting myself...maybe they didn't?

    Thanks.

    No map lights dont do that unless you modify. Instructions can be found here with searching.

    Perfectly normal... This time. :D

    There is a way to make them come on at the same time when opening the door. I want to do it but havent.
