Default Locker/swaybar switch wiring for switch backlight

I'm wiring up a switch for my ARB air compressor. I'm looking for wires to link into for the lighting of the switch. Closest one I can find is for the switch panel for the sway bar/
Locker. There's three wires, trying to figure out which wire as for the lockers, which wire is for the sway bar, and which wire is the power for the switch lights. I want to tap into the power wire for the dimmable lights on the switch. I've tried poking around with a test wire but not having much luck. Would prefer not to pierce the wiring if I don't have to. Anyone know which wire is which?

Lol. Hey Neville, I was actually just reading your build thread. Very sick. Don't pop into the forums to much anymore but every once in awhile...

Those are low voltage wires that work thru the can bus, I would not tap into them. I believe the cig lighter next to that switch is keyed to the ignition.
