Hi,
It sounds like you have your hands full. Just to confirm, is this a 2500? That is what I got the schematics from. The 8.1 isn't offered in the 1500.
As far as the schematics, the first six pics below are for the courtesy lights. Note that I had to cut each of the pics in half to make them readable for you. However, I did overlap them so you can follow from one to the next.
The next six pics are for the exterior lighting which includes cab lights. ( I think that is what you needed)
The last four pics are of the security system

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have questions or need anything else.
Take care,
Joe
