Just an update....
Tapped fuse 79 and got my front LEDs going. Also replaced my clearance light bulbs with LED T10's.

Thanks everyone!

I'm in the same position with tapping into fuse F79 but what if a guy wanted to tap directly into the wire underneath for a super clean install? Does anyone have any wiring diagrams or knows what wire to tap into? I poked at a couple wires but couldn't find the right one

Unless you have a 2500 or larger, there won't be a wire there. You will need to add a pin/wire to socket 26 on the C7 connector under the TIPM. That's how I did mine.

No I only have a 1500 but there is power to that fuse. It looked like there was a wire coming off but maybe not.

I wound up tapping into the headlight.

Yes, there is power going in (comes on with the parking lights), just no wire coming out.

looks great, that F79 really comes in handy
What is the Fuse 79 y'all are referring to? On my classic 1500 is listed as clearance lights, which I'm going to try tapping into for marker lights myself, but wanted to clarify if that's what you guys were referring to.

On my 2023 1500 warlock, no contacts in 79...are there parts available to add pins? I want grill lights to come on with parking lights. as temporary, put wire into socket of 28 - cartridge fuse (next to 79) for trailer parkers
