Basically, if your vehicle has negative door triggers, then connect the positive lead of the door sills to a constant 12V+ and the negative lead of the sills to the negative door trigger. If your vehicle has positive door triggers, connect the negative lead of the door sills to ground and the positive lead of the door sills to the positive door trigger. However, you may need a relay to do this properly/safely depending on the current draw of the door sills and the vehicle.
What year, make, and model vehicle?
