I have a 2003 gt and my mother in law got me those dumb led strips to put in my car as a light for getting in I wired them into the black white wire from the dome light hoping they will turn on and off with the dome light they don't turn on when I open the door I have to turn the headlight knob for them to come on could it be I have no bulb in the dome?

Hey Jon, welcome to Stangnet.

I have no idea, I'll move your thread over to our '96-'04 tech section. Someone there will be able to help you out.

Post a picture or two of what you've done to help the guys visualize what you have done.

Good to have you with us brother.

So they only come on with the headlights or they will work with the door opening and closing but only when the headlight knob is pulled?

It's easy to check for a dome light bulb or not.... There should also be the map lights on the dome light, do those work?
