Aftermarket Bed Light Options?

[DBaron]

It's pretty straightforward. Red wire to hot wire, yellow wire to ground, good to go. I wired mine to the trailer 12V always hot wire and then picked a bolt on the frame somewhere I think. My switch is stuck to the wall of the bed behind the driver tail light so I wouldn't accidentally bump it. Wires run through a hole that's right there down behind the tail light, then under the truck. Here's a video of a guy installing them, but I haven't watched it. Just googled "Nilight bed strip kit install".

Thanks !

Thanks all. I think I'm good for now. I ended up using a pair of simple plastic toggle bolts, and drilling a couple 9/64 holes in the two ends of the OEM trim piece, and screwing them in. We'll see how this goes this summer; I have a long trip coming up and if they fall out, I'll try something else.

I like the type of lights you have. You have a link to where you got them

I liked the idea llando88 has for a magnetic light but my sprayed in liner wouldn't allow me to use the magnetic lights so I screwed in a piece of sheet metal to my fold out storage box and has worked out great for my needs.

If anyone is interested in an OEM install check out these threads. Another option to the kit mentioned previously is to buy the OEM lights and the harnesses used when the lights are installed by the factory. I think this route is a little cheaper and you don't have to pull the wire all the way to the engine compartment. The two harness you purchase replace two harnesses, one left and one right side, that go from under the bed to the tail lights.

Mopar LED Bed Lights Install?

Has anybody installed the Mopar LED bed lights themselves? Watching the video from infotainment I have a few questions. When they pin the wires to the C1 and C7 connectors, there are wires already pinned there from the factory that he just removes. Any ideas on what those wires are for...
