    its pretty simple. The dome light is constant power and the door switch is the ground and is what completes the circuit turning the dome light on. You need to wire your puddle lights the same way. Constant power from the battery, dome light splice, or anything you have that always has power. then you need to splice the ground into the single wire that goes to the door switch.

    for instance, i used Oznium LED bolt lights in the bottom of the door. ran the wires through the door boot. power comes from my aux fuse block, use the same power connection for both doors, but use door specific ground wire to the door switch. this way each door has a light when its open. Been there for like 2.5 years and no issues. I did @LivinLoud 's truck too.
