    Tacodane made me a custom kit exactly how I asked him to and it came out just as I envisioned it. Good lights and a good guy, he got that kit shipped out fast too. The lights come on with my dome lights and dim off with them.

    Thanks. I just used an add-a-fuse on the dome light circuit. The new circuit is on a little 3A fuse. I don't think I even need a 3A fuse. My wife is happy how it came out. I told her if she wants it any brighter then we have to buy the rigid rock lights.:D

    There are separate led strips on each side that are tied into the switched ground for the dome lights and a new 3A circuit using an add-a-fuse off the always hot dome light circuit. I'll try get some pics later tonight. I still need to clean-up some wiring where it all splices together by the fuse panel. Tacodane's led strips are pretty bright. I'm going to silicone the ends of some of the strips to waterproof them a little more.

    This is how I did mine. The mounting plate is sold by a TW member in the "Fuse Panel Mounting Plate" thread.
    Sorry I'm using android, for some reason it won't let me link.:confused:
