    they have a white light in the mirror some call a clearance light, some call a reverse light... im hoping to connect them as puddle lights. has anyone done that? and more importantly, where is the connection for puddle lights? my truck doesnt have puddle lights under the doors. im wanting them to come on when i click the unlock button, but not when i turn on my interior lights. idk if that is possible.

    From what I can tell, the footwell light seems to do what I want it to. On when the fob unlocks doors... Off when truck starts and doesn't turn on when I turn on interior lights... Think I'll be tying in there.
