    Hello everyone,

    I've been looking for awhile on how to set up my side mounted roof rack lights. I would like to have the option to have them go on with the dome light, or manually. I have a SPDT switch and currently have one of the ON positions hooked up to the lights. So that works. But does anyone have a good way to tap into the dome light and how it I would integrate that to the switch without feeding the light from two different sources?

    I hope that makes sense.

    Thanks,
    Brian

    You can tap into the DOME fuse in the interior fuse box using an Add-A-Fuse. I'm pretty sure it'll work since I know a guy who is doing something similar but with interior lights instead of roof rack lights
