Bear in mind that the dome lamp is controlled by electronics, (dimming and auto shut-off after door left open) If you are adding them you may want a seperate wiring and control circuit.

i had them under footwells but one broke. So now they're under the seat for front light. I have EL wire for back lighting taped under the seat for the rear.

Also, thanks for clarifying that lights are indeed electronic.

Just saying if you draw too much current or hook the wrong device to the dome circuit and the control unit is a goner.
Funny how there is another thread where indeed they are trying to tie into the dome circuit. Hmmm....
Yes my contribution was totally worthless and yours so helpful, Flame on !!
