Smile Chevy Dome Light/ Steering Wheel Squeaking

1.) I was looking into adding more lights inside my truck. Only problem is i'm not sure how to hook them up so that whenever my dome light turns on they all come on at the same time. Any suggestion's ?

2.) I have not figure out why, but every time I turn left the steering wheel is squeaking at me! I looked to see if there was any animals stuck in there, but no luck! ha What else could it possible be and any solutions?

#1 look at the dome light wires and see what color they are and then look at your fuze panel for those wires and connect them there. or just look at the panel and see witch fuse is for the int. lights.
#2 do you grab the steering wheel when you climb in everytime. that will cause the bearing to have a bad spot in it and will after time make the steering wheel loose not falling off but have play in it

1# I tired looking around the truck people for a fuze that would work, but my problem was that the lights that I hooked up wouldn't turn off and I don't want them killing my battery! so any suggestion to any spec. fuze unit I should use?

2# I do grab the steering wheel everytime weird I never thought of that!
So do I need to replace the bearing or is there sometype of quick fix that would fix the squeaking ? and how much to replace to you think it would cost if I need to ?

you can put a toggel switch on the hot side and just turn it on and off when you need them. unless you want them to come on with the dome. then you need a test light and some time and test every wire with the door open it will light up the get in and close the door to see if it goes out then that will be the hot wire you need to hook up your lights too. hope that helps out bud and good luck it's not hard just time
