It depends on what type of system you have in the truck now:

If Equipped With Factory Keyless Entry: Negative Pulse Door Lock
Without Keyless Entry: Reverse Polarity Door Lock ( https://www.the12volt.com/doorlocks/page3.asp#arp )

The lights are nothing special. Just attach the Prestige parking light output wire to the DARK BROWN wire coming from the steering column or at the switch. This wire will test 12 volts when the parking lights are turned on.

How did you wire up the system ?

How many White parking light wires are on the Prestige unit? And how many fuses does it have?

Some of the Audiovox (Prestige) stuff has an ordinary positive parking light output. Others have two wires----one is the output to the lights, the other is the input.....you would put this to ground, or constant positive, depending on your car's lighting system.
