One thing that I am trying to do is not splice into any wiring. I hate the t-taps, although the Posi-Tap- No Crimp Tap may be a better option, or soldering of course...just a bit harder to do in getting hands in there.
Are there any unused plugs in the dash or even console that I can connect the illumination switch wires instead? That is a cleaner solution for me. I was hoping there are are unused connectors as I have a number of unused plugs in the dash and console.

It depends on how much you want that switch to light up. I decided not to illuminate the switch because half of the interior lights don't light up anyways, or at least that's how it feels, ha! But mostly because I didn't want to screw with the OEM wiring. Mine doesn't light with the dash lights, but does when it is on. Another option is to install an add-a-fuse to the tail light fuse under the drivers side dash, and wire it to the dash light wire on the AOB. I tested it, and it works, but you won't get dimming. I just decided not to all together, but that's just me! Good luck!
