    Hi I have a 2021 Tacoma Sport 4 door. Looking to add LED FootWell lights under the dash. Just wondering if there is a easy access wire under the dash for the door switch operation. Photo would be great. Thanks much

    Hi Skydvrr Not sure what the post is getting to.

    My project is complete with bits I had in the shop, but I do like the parking light feature that the VLED unit offers. Thanks !!!

    Mine is wired to my cargo switch in my Tacoma. Can turn them off, on and with door unlock / lock operation. The same as the cargo light

    the tundra is run off the already existing footwell light.

    I wouldn’t doubt it. I went with a Vled kit myself.

    Can you share which wires you tapped into for the footwell lighting. I bought Vled footwell lights awhile ago but it is not the PNP version.

    This is a nice kit. I installed it in about 3 hours and I have to say the puddle lights look amazing with nice lines and light up the ground perfect. Also the two LED footwell lights are perfect as well. They dim to a nice night light when driving at night time. This is a super well put together kit. I too thought it looked cheap but the reviews and the quality is amazing.
