Installing led bed lights. Since I have the tail lights out is there a constant power I can tap into instead of running extra wire to my trailer harness?

No constant power at the Tail Light.

How did you install your bed lights? Where did you end up tapping in for power?

I tapped into the constant power going to the trailer hitch harness. Used a Tee tap connecter.

So you just ran that to a switch mounted somewhere in the bed and operate it by that only. No auto on with say Parking lights or cargo lights?

Correct. The only way these lights ever come on is if I turn them on by the switch.

I did the same as referenced in the post linked below. Super simple. Took about 30 minutes and I love having control of the bed lights while I’m at the bed.

Would these accesss be able to fit a CB antenna fitting through? Oh yeah look underneath plenty of spots

Agreed. No worries of needing your key fob near you and if something getting left on to burn them out.I did the same as referenced in the post linked below. Super simple. Took about 30 minutes and I love having control of the bed lights while I’m at the bed.
