That should work, except some lighters remain powered. So maybe the
ignition switch? I guess some alarms tap into it? Properly fused of
course. You may still be able to Google Fujitsu-Ten faxback and get
detailed fax-back on factory (toyota) alarm installation instructions.
Would be good reading.

If you use low wattage LEDs then it may be OK. I had thought about
rigging an ambience lighting system (foot wells, ceiling to center
console, inside door handle area, under front seats, etc) and I
suppose most don't need bright LEDs for that. (There are legal limits
to the number and types of external lighting in many states.)
