help with wiring to interior light

hey guys

I have a 1.4 2001 ibiza and brought some door sills off the bay for £8. Brushed aluminium and on the sill it has "ibiza" that lights up in red.

Now im totally useless at wiring. I dont want the lights to be on all the time so i thought it would be best to wire the sills to the interior light so when you open the door the sills light up. How would i go around doing this? As i said im not to great with removing bits of delicate trim or splitting loads of cables so a step by step would be handy.

if not i suppose i could just wire it to the battery and put a switch on, but it would be nicer having them turn on/off automatically. Maybe even wire them into the full beam switch so they come on at night?

thanks

Well then they'll light up when your driving and i imagine the reason you are installing them is so when you open your doors they are on so unless you pull up with your full beam on they won't be on. Wiring it into the interior light just seems like a head ache. Easiest would be to have a seperate swith or you could wire it into your side lights, or the dimmer, would be on all the time but as long as the key is in the ignition they'll be on!!!!!

If you want it to be wired into the dimmer search for Gauge back light as there is a detailed pic guide.
