    Wiring a light in a car.
    Hey guys, got a few questions.

    I want to wire a few led strips in my car. I want to make it so that it comes on when the door is opened, so I can use the door sensor to provide power. At the same time, I want it to be on when I drive around town, so that would be powered from my cigarette lighter. I also want a switch so I can turn them off. Is this possible?

    Also, would there be a way to make it stay on after the door is closed, before the car is on?

    Thanks!
