Help with Door Courtesy Lights
I want to install courtesy lights under my car doors to light up when I open the door like the dome lights.
I got these led strips and I need to wire them up. Can someone guide as to which wires to connect?

I'm guessing that the wires from the LED driver are:
Red: Batt +
Black: Ground
Yellow: Positive trigger
If you search something like "puddle lights", "footwell lights", "led door reflector" or "tap into dome light wiring" then you should be able to figure out where you can connect them.
I know the red reflectors on my doors don't light up when the door is open so you'll likely need to get power from somewhere else.

Yo travlee you are so depressing man. You pay a monthly subscription fee to come here and b**** people off. I wish I would restrict you from posting on my threads and not just block you from my sight.

I recalled seeing this thread some years ago, and the pics are gone now, but apparently this installer didn't find a switched power source in his Z:

And, some company made a kit:

Since the pics are gone in the link that dcains posted, here's a diy thread that should help with the wiring. Pics are still good. It's for light up door sills, but it seems like you're trying to accomplish the same thing with your lights: https://my350z.com/forum/exterior-an...oor-sills.html
