Finally figured out how to properly wire the lights to switch on with the doors open on my wife's ROAM steps.
Pain with the dimming dome/interior lights :headbang:

'07 JKU, Ordering JLU Sahara
I took delivery today & had my new shoes put on. Pardon the crummy picture--I had to grab it and run straight to my softball game. More to come eventually..

Easy or hard, once you figured it out? Easy enough for a write-up? Tx

Yeah I'll do a write up later today when I consolidate all the photos/links. It's easy enough, but if/when I do it again I'd probably make a complete harness. I ordered a LED harness with a mechanical relay that didn't play nicely with the dimming dome lights so I had to order a solid state relay and chop off the wiring going into the relay.

Looking at the video, the lights look really bright. Are they too bright to be used as running lights so whenever the lights are in they will be on?

I wouldn't use them as running lights at night...
They look brighter in the video than they are in person(especially the two the camera are pointed at.)
At night if someone at car height looks directly into them it may have them seeing seeing spots for a few seconds.
From the side they are just perfect.
