I need to tap into +12v when the vehicles' dash mounted photocell senses nighttime condition. And no voltage for daytime. I can't use the headlight ckt for reasons i won't go into here. Can anyone advise?

After much research, I'll answer my own question...

BCM connector 2 (white) pin 3 (brown w/white trace) goes high (+6vdc) when photocell on dash senses twilight/nightime condition. If you need +12vdc to trigger your device, just insert a relay with a 6v coil.
