    Anyone know if we can tap into the interior fuses to wire a running board?

    or if we can tap into the tail light to turn it on when its running?

    I was going to use a running board light from Amazon. I was just going to tap into the puddle light and the fuse up front just wanting to see if this is the right fuse

    So I tapped into the interior fuses and the lights are now working I will write awrite up about it. I was able to tap int other dome cut light so when i open the doors the running board strip is white and tap into the extra accessory fuse so when i start the car the strip is on.
