I had the same issue so I wired them to the door switch and the door module power supply.

That’s great Jon is it constant power or is it switched? Cheers

Constant, puddle lights come on with door open and off when closed

In order to connect the puddle lights in the same way that they come from the factory, you will need to fabricate a wiring loom to the door control module, then activate it by adding Luxury Pack to the car's configuration using STAR.

The workaround posted above by john.english68 is a quicker way of achieving similar result.

The light is fed by permanent live 12v (+) wire, while the door switch closes the circuit by connecting it to Ground (-).

Where did you get the connector that plugs into the light?
