Great now I have to install those cause I like them too. Shouldn't be too hard, just gonna take the wire to the back dome light that is easy to get at that is "switched" on and run it back under the carpet down by one of the seatbelt plastic posts and put four lights under the front row of seats, two facing the front and two facing the back.

That's about what I did with Bruiser. I don't have a picture, so I'll update this post tomorrow with one. I plan on doing it cleaner in the Enterprise.

Don't mind the cobwebs. Truck has been sitting for awhile. Proper wire routing is on the list for when I get to start working on it again. It's not related to the lights (spare 12V ports on the dash and speaker wire for boxes behind the seat).

Bruiser's interior lights.

Same on both kick panels.

It really lights up after dark. Non-offensive to the eyes but bright enough. Turns heads. Oh, and the Enterprise's lonely dome light.

So, I went ahead and used some of my spare cab lights and spliced them into the wiring for the ash tray light which runs off the running lights and is dimmer switched. Put two under the front of the dash near the shifter.

Then I added two running board lights in by the back seat right into where the two screws go. Only issue is I'm having a hell of a time running the wire from under the carpet up into one of those holes to hide the wire. Any ideas? I think I'm gonna drill a bigger hole between the screw holes to try and fish a coat hanger through the bottom as even with those two screws out I cannot move the pillar at all to try and pry it away to run the wire. Hmm..

Never mind I got it tonight when I got home from work. Maybe I work better after a long shift exhausted in the dark cold drive way while it's snowing? :dunno
