Try here for "A" Pillar removal...

I tapped into map light. Red wire is +, Brown/Yellow is the - that goes with the map/door light control. Both run down the passenger "A" pillar. This will allow the lights to dim with the map light. The cigarette and stereo leads will not dim, but remain on till the key is turned off.
