Illuminated Door Sill Plate Wiring Harness - Now made own harness

I’ve bought a pair of the uplevel illuminated door sill plates and just realized the OEM kit includes a harness with the sill plates. Was wondering if anyone knew either the part number for the harness or another way to wire up the sill plates?

They are the OEM sill plates with the connectors but no harness.

I see the part number for the sill plates are 84127636 and/or 84127637 but can’t find the harness by itself

I think you can tap in here, but if you can build youself a simple harness you can save a few bucks.

Thanks for that! I looked at the pics the guy I bought them from sent me and I realize it’s just two wires from each sill. Hopefully it’s as easy as I’m thinking, gonna get some wire and wait for them to arrive and try out before I install

I added colored footwell courtesy lights. You can check it out here https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=564653
Tapping into the circuit was the easiest part. I'm pretty sure that's the same one you want for the door sills; on when the doors open and timed fade off when closed.

I used my own wire as well and looked at the harness instructions. On the passenger side is a grounding screw already. And you actually can tap the same place the oem harness does

I just got my sill plates today and using all the links you guys provided I made what I think is the equivalent of the OEM harness and it works!

(Ignore the flickering, I accidentally kept missing the pos/neg on the 9V)

DIY harness in action

I’m gonna wait for homedepot to open tomorrow to get some heat shrink and probably a bigger ring terminal size to fit the OEM grounding screw as Oramac2016 said

I ordered the parts and had the dealership install them. Door sills came with the required harness. I'd have thought yours would as well.

I’m penny pinching 😂

Got the sill plates from a FaceBook member for $80 and realized he didn’t have the harness mid shipping

Do you have a wiring diagram for this? I'm guessing this is a parallel circuit?

Not really a diagram but I remember using this install pdf and just copying the wiring myself
