It depends on side of the switch to which the sills are wired.
It depends on side of the switch to which the sills are wired. If the sill wires are attached between the switch and the interior lights, the sills will be switched with the lights. If the sill wires are attached to the other side of the switch, they will illuminated even when the interior lights are switched off.
WaveyKat, follow the instructions you have posted. Using those instructions will result in the sills only being illuminated when the doors are open. If you don't have a test light to check to see which wires are always on, go to an auto parts store and ask for a circuit testing light.

Good luck with the installation.
