Ok, I've been trying to tackle this for a while and this is what I've come up with.

I think the only way to get this right would be to tap into one of the existing bulbs. Since tapping into them through the circuit board film would be very difficult there is my way.

Each bulb has a socket. Inside the socket their are the clips that connect between the bulb and the circular connection source when you twist them.

So here is what you do. Drill a hole in the socket directly in the middle so you don't drill out the bulb stops. Then figure out which lead is the positive side and which lead is the negative side. The way to do this is, before you twist the bulb out, put a mark (with a sharpie) on the lead that touches the circuit panel that is on the "Ground" (negative) side. Then, get some very small wire, and solder them to the correct leads.

Hope that makes sense.
