Hey POWERSTROKEMS, I have the same truck that you do, and when I installed my AMP research power steps I had to tap into certain wires under the edge of the carpet near the door sills. These wires are the factory "door ajar" wires that warn you when the door is open, and also turn your dome light on. In my application, they make sure that the steps only deploy when the doors are opened, and stay retracted when the doors are closed. Maybe you can tap into these so that your door sills will only light up when you open any of the four doors, and turn off when you close them. Here are the instructions as per AMP research: Good Luck!
Front Driver Side Door: Dark Green with Purple stripe
(avoid other wires of similar color... the lighter green
wires will not work).
Rear Driver Side: Dark Green (avoid other wires of
similar color... the lighter green wire will not work).
REGULAR CAB/SUPER CAB NOTE: Connect this
wire to constant ground wire (Purple with black stripe)
because these models don’t have rear door ajar wires.
Front Passenger Side: White... found just below fl at
loom as shown in the illustration above.
Rear Passenger Side: Yellow... the correct yellow wire
continues on to back door. Pull on the yellow wire that
leads to the back and does not cross over to driver side
at junction; you’ll notice the movement of the correct
wire up where we connect our trigger wires.
