Default Best place to tap in for adding LED lights

Planning on adding some led lights under the dash and seats and was wondering what the best place would be without setting off any codes.

Was thinking about the Fog light fuse, so when I turn on my fog lights at night he interior would light up.

Any suggestions?

Memorial day weekend is not the best time to post a question to CL. Give it extra time.

Tap into the cigarette lighter. There is a harness for the cigarette lighter ring illumination. Even if your cigarette lighter doesn't have the illuminated ring around it, there is still a harness back there. The lights will dim and brighten with the instrument panel and it won't set off any codes.
