Great writeup Josh, I am needing some advice from some of you that has experience with this. I followed this write up to a T and got my lights to working but when i turn park lights or headlights on then all my interior lights come on as well as the ones under the seats and dash. I have tried different things to try and solve the problem but without succsess. Any help would be appreciated. The only difference I had in my 04 ram was the dim wire wasn't the same color. I probed till I found the one that dims and spliced into that. Thanks for any insight anyone can offer.

04 wiring is apparently different than the 06 you did write up on. Just tossing this out there for others that is considering doing the same. After trial and error I decided to go a little different route in the end. I have the On-Off-On switch as a manual ON, OFF, and then off until the interior lights are activated. This gives me the option of leaving it in one ON position and when I open doors or what not all my LED's will turn on and fade out when door is closed. Since I have a manual on I figured I would like this option best and not on 100% of the time when headlights are on. Thanks for the help and if anyone needs info just ask.
