I would like to mount some 12V LED stripes somewhere in the foot area or under the seats. I already have the LED stripes but don't want to connect it to the lighter socket or any 12V constant power. I want it to go on when the doors are open and to go off when the doors close. Just like the dome lights.
Is there any connector near the dash I can use for this?
The only connector I currently know is the one at the dome lights and I don't want to run a cable down from the dome lights. Especially as I think they anyway must go up there from the dash. So does anybody know where I can tap in or where those cables end up?
What makes the thing more difficult is that Subaru seems to run 12V constantly to the dome light and pulling GND to ground only when the lights are on, or more precisely their "Light GND" seems to be dimming by changing from 0V to xV up.
