Adding Light / LIghting for glove box - DIY install

[Dad]

Dad , They came quanity 6 not 4 . I have two lights someplace in my abode .

AMIR Upgraded Motion Sensor Light, Cordless Battery-Powered LED Night Light, Stick-Anywhere Closet Light Stair Lights, Wall Lights for Hallway, Bedroom, Kitchen (White - Pack of 6)

Oh, ok. Yeah, I'm familiar with these types of lights. I probably have 20 of them scattered throughout my house and in the garage. Why I didn't think about putting one in the Maverick's glove box is beyond me! Thanks for the suggestion and the description. I'm sure I'll find something on Amazon that is small enough to fit unobtrusively in the glove box.

One wire went to the ground stud of the BCM and the other tied into the same wire I used to power the auto dimming mirror that I installed (fuse #3).

Because several people asked what fuse and it was in original post.

From manual:

3​

10 A​

Auto-dimming interior mirror. Image processing module A. Automatic high beam control.​

And to the question of would battery saver mode effect this.

Should not - because this should turn off as soon as truck is off, no delayed-power on is possible anyway.

So NOT like interior lights, key off light off.

I just stuck mine on the left side of the box ,this way I don't get blinded from direct light.

Good point. That's where I placed mine.
