    So I was looking into not cutting into the OEM harness for various mods to be done.

    Here are a few burner items.

    1) Puddle Lamps that illuminate with Lock & Unlock, then '70's style turn on while turn signal is selected. One side at a time.

    2) Inverter harness for in-cab sockets. No cutting wires.

    3) Adding power and illumination w/ dimming source to center console using A/C panel as source. No cutting wires too.

    Here's a peek...

    I have the turn on and off with the door lock. I just tapped the ground into the dome light...

    I like the turn signal idea! but i think i would need better lights for that. What kind of lights are you using for the puddle lights?

    Oh and dont fuck up these junction blocks.. they are not cheap...

    DPDT is to have them OFF if needed, ON or Auto Turn Signal, '70 style and ON w/ dimming Off. (parallel with Dome, not the overhead switch, but that could be a variation)
