Hello, I want to install some led lights in the rear cargo area of my 16 Tahoe. I am trying to decide whether to make them turn on from a aux switch mounted back there or come on with the dome light. So two questions...

1. If I connect them to the dome light, I can just tap into the dome light wire right?

2. If i want them on a new aux switch, can I get power from the aux plug socket back here? Refer to photos.


Thanks for all the help

BTW this photo is not my Tahoe, its just a photo I saw online.

As you probably already know, those rear power ports are constant battery voltage, not switched. You could just use them with a switched LED, but that may not be the "clean" look you're going for...

Thanks chicagofan. I saw that thread but that's not exactly what I was looking for. I'll just wing it and let you guys know what I get.
