Where would be the best location to tap into power for additional led strip lights for the rear cargo area? I was thinking the the rear dome light but not sure.

Nice TY, where did you find this schematic? I have looked but they always stopped at 63-64.

Please that would be awesome. I did find this part about 2 years ago prob paid way to much for it, but it was the only one I had ever seen for sale not with complete doors. I know someone on here has a 3D print of the complete assembly for someone to try to reproduce but the costs are way to...
