To make sure my struggles didn't go in vain, I will do a short write up on how to shove the fucking wire down that rubber tube's butthole very soon. Everything else is just plug and play.

I wired my courtesy and footwell lights to my dome so they operate as close to OEM as possible, ie when the door is open.

As you can see from the third picture, no exposed wires.

Hell ya! Can't wait for the write up!

Doing the install for my brother in the morning. Taking better pics this time around since I'll have a second set of hands helping.

The write up portion is looking pretty long lol so I'll post again when I finish.

You dont need to go through the door and tap into the dome light.
just tap into the wires in the door
