Well I added my marker lights yesterday, it took only 3 hours, 1 1/2 hrs of work plus 1 1 /2 hrs of on and off rain. It was real simple to do. 1st. I removed the overhead light with a #2 phillips screw driver (a single screw), then took my fingers from front to rear and pryed the light fixture off at the rear. Then used a T20 driver for the two sun visor holders (a single screw), then a T15 for the sun visor unit removal (3 screws). Next I pried loose the driver side pillar post cover at the top enough to allow the head liner to drop a few inches (about 6") and also did the same for the passenger side. I did not have to remove the handle on the above the passenger side door. I followed the instructions on installing the Pacer lights. Then ran the wire down the driver side corner post (remove the fuse panel cover for easier access) and then tapped the wire into the brown wire from my trailer controller harness. This had been suggested by dMaxCruiser and others.
"Look on page 5-114 of the owner's manual at the Center Instrument Panel Fuse Block diagram. The connector labeled 'TRAILER' has 6 pins. I found that the lower left pin does what you want. I checked all pins on all unused connectors and this was the only one that worked exactly as desired. I'm not sure what this connector's purpose is, in-cab trailer brake controller maybe?"
I finished up by securing all loose wires and sealing all holes with silicone including the ones prior to installing the screws in the pacer lights.
The pillar covers are removed by prying them out at the top and it will pop out quite easy as there is only one snap pin assembly on each pillar about 2" from the top. There is no need to remove the pillar cover completely.
It works like an OEM installed light. Also I applied a 1/2" x 1/2" piece of elec. tape to the screw tips (just start the screws in on the tape) on the pacer lights which held the "T" supports inplace with the screws while mounting the light units.
