Are you sure those are the colors? The closest color pair I can find would be for a car with a ZVM: a .5 mm^2 brown/red wire, a mostly brown wire with a red stripe. The order you give the colors is critical. Red/brown would be a mostly red wire with a brown stripe which is something completely different!

1. it works if do I plug the wire that goes the aftermarket alarm? ( to avoid take the wire along to the dome light)? |
That might work if the alarm goes off anytime the interior lights go on.

2. there is no way to do the step 1. so i need to take the cable to the dome light, but if do that i need plug it in just in the switch base or in any part of the cable? |
If you are happy to have the footwell lights come on when you open a door, you should be able to tap into a wire running up the a-pillar from the glovebox area to the roof – once you have the right color.

i don't want to go to the glovebox, (I'm kinda scissors hand lol) |
Sure, I can understand that, but how are you going to mount the passenger side footwell light? I had to remove the glovebox in order to remove the horizontal panel underneath and cut a hole in it.
