Thanks but that wasn't the ones I was talking about. It's the two factory lights that are by the tailgate

I have them they are super bright not sure they are worth $100. I would check superbriteled.com they must have something close. or check a trailer place like e trailer. Doesn't seem right the dealer parts don't sell them someone is going to smash one.

You can get them at the dealer. Your dealer parts guy just doesn't want your business...

My local dealer has happily quoted me a decent price for them and labor to install them.

EDIT: Here are the part numbers.

5182672AA is for the right lamp
5182673AA is for the left lamp

Interesting, thank you. Do these activate with the tailgate, with the cargo lights, or with a manual switch?

I don't have them installed, but all 3 is what the person said in the other thread. Just like when you unlock and open a door, but it has a manual switch on one side, and you can use the cargo light button to make them turn on.

Nice!

For anyone that's put these on after the fact, do they plug into unused factory wiring?

I want these!

Does anyone know if they can be added to 2013-2015 trucks or is it only an install option for 2016 trucks??

Is there a separate harness PN that is needed to do the install??

I read "I connected the power to the constant on behind the trailer plug"..... I personally never did electrical in the truck so I don't know what that exactly means.

The mounting holes are already there for the 2016, but not earlier models, so you have to do some drilling to mount them.

Also.... Where are the switches to control them and what do they look like? Pictures?

From what I can tell, late-build 2015 might have the holes. There is a harness that comes with the lights, but I don't know if the wiring is in there for late-2015 models.

I believe that one of the lights has a rubber dome switch to turn them on manually?

My 2015 has the mounting holes but not the lights. I really want them ever since I test drove a 16. I wish I knew if the wiring was there.

My 2015 with a 3/15 build date has these holes. Have to look to see if there is any wiring for it though.
