Puddle lights for 2015s that did not come with them

[vishnu619]

So I just did this mod on my 2015 Tahoe. The lights I used are $10.95 with free shipping. They are rated at 550 lumens. For the price they were worth a shot.

I am posting because my truck did not come with puddle lights so I could not use the same wire stated on pin 8 the grey with green line. When I tried that wire the light would just flash but would not stay on. I had to use the solid grey wire which is pin one on the first set of connections under the dash looking left to right. I assume the other would not work due to them not being programmed for puddle lights. The wire I used is for the courtesy lights. Will post after a while to share how they hold up. Mod on.

Looks great, I'll have to do this mod as well and I appreciate you doing the homework for me, lol. I'm thinking I might add an led under the side mirrors also.

Noticed last night that I do have the puddle lights under the side mirrors. But I would like to put some under the running boards also.

With the New found wire . does it still come on With the keyless unlocking and stay on till dome is off and what not?

I thought about doing this with LED strips, any idea where the best place to get a 3 to 5 foot strip would be??

The lights stay on as long as the courtesy lights are on so yes, when I unlock the truck they come on with the lights and stay on the same term
