If I wire a strip of leds to the bulb socket while keeping the illumination wire still wired will it fry it?
Say I wire it that way and then turn on headlights with a door open?
If you run wires from the timer circuit in dome down to the front? footwell? lights then why wouldn't the dome and footwells do the same thing depending on what position the dome switch is in?
Because I want them on when I open the door, off when it is closed and on when im driving.If you run wires from the timer circuit in dome down to the front? footwell? lights then why wouldn't the dome and footwells do the same thing depending on what position the dome switch is in?

Switching it to on when driving and then off when I am exiting will get annoying quickly.

I have the JDM footwell light kit hooked into my dome circuit with a red halogen bulb in dome and when the doors open, footwells light up with dome and dim out when door closes like dome does. When I turn on the dome with the switch on roof, the footwell lighting does not come on and dimming the gauges does nothing to dome or footwell lighting. When the roof switch is in off position, only the footwell lights come on when doors open. This all works independent of parking/headlights.
I found the two wires in driver a pillar that go from the the dome switch, one is positive one is ground I suppose...
Wow damn, did not expect that. So I just ground it to whatever and the switch will work?I'm pretty sure that's not right.
The two wires are both positive.
One is live all the time so you can turn on the dome light without the key in the ignition.
The other is positive for when the door is open.
Ground is through the screws of the dome light into the metal roof.
What you probably have happening is some sort of short circuit/cross talk between the two positives but luckily the LEDs are so low current that you didn't fry your timer/door circuit.

Where can I get a copy of said wiring diagram?I'm not 100% sure but yes I think so... Treat those two wires as positives and use any ground.
The wiring diagrams are missing a lot of pages so there's a lot of guess work... Anything tied to security was deleted.
Just be careful not to short the timer/door circuit or you could fry it... Then you'll have no door activated lighting. (one guy did do that and the circuit was dead... And I'm pretty sure the circuit and it's little microprocessor is located in the cluster.)
