    Trying to figure out a fuse that would turn on my rock lights when I unlock and am getting into my truck.

    basically a fuse that is tied to my dome/ interior lights

    Lol, just look at any of Caribe's other posts - he literally helps every electrical question every single time. If he's telling you to search it's a message.
    Also literally the fourth fuse up is called DOME.

    Ok, I see your other post, but what you want is actually to tap the Dome circuit on the inside fuse panel. If you just put an addafuse in there it will be on all the time. You want to use the 12v from the dome circuit to trigger a relay for your rock lights lights or maybe directly if you've only got two leds.

    The fuse just provides power. The negative side of that circuit is what controls the dimming to ON, and the dimming to OFF.
