Under body rock lighting

I just picked up a 10 head led rock light kit for my 2012 f-150 and I wanted to make it when the doors are opened they light up the underside of the truck. Can anyone shed some light on how to do this.

Wire them to the courtesy/dome lights and they should go on and off like you want

Where would i tap in at, because the dome light fuse is hot all the time so the rock lights will stay on. I could tap it into the bed lights on the 3rd brakelight, but im not sure where to tap into it. I was thinking of taping into the same wires that you would to put power running boards on the truck. Any ideas?

There are 2 different wires that power the dome lights I think. One that is hot all the time for the dome light switch and one that is only hot for the courtesy lights. For when you open a door or unlock the truck. Or you could tap into the puddle lamps under the mirrors of you have those.
