Looks like fuse/position 9, 15amp.. In the panel it will be on the bottom row, counting 'right to left' it will be in the 9th position..

Looking again,, no..

The 9, 15amp is circuit protection for the interior/coutesy lamps,, but is the feed in (not switched) for the control module for the interior lamps for theater/dimming mode.. You might be able to catch the GY/VT wire coming out of the panel, but will have the theater dim function.. Not sure about anysizeable or extra load added there..Might be able to add a circuit and/or relay, with the door ajar switch in control of the grounding?

catch the GY/VT wire coming out of the panel, but will have the theater dim function. What is gy/vt? Green and violet? The kit comes with wire led and a on/off switch. So how exactly do i hook it up to that spot and what will it give me?
