Aftermarket bed Lights

[DOlds]

I have seen a post awhile back that someone installed aftermarket light in there bed. I have ordered everything. I was looking for the post so I can see how they ran the power wire and I believe it had pictures in the thread.

I appreciate any help.

Tap into the constant 12v from the 7 pin trailer plug, and run a switch right inside the tailgate. You can use a curt harness if you don’t want to tap into your factory wires

Much easier to tap into the cargo light circuit. Then your bed lights go on and off with the cargo light, and no switch or relay needed.
It's the white wire with tan tracer under the driver side rear floor. There's 50 wires in the bundle so be careful. Get the right wire and you are golden. Lots of posts talking about the white/tan wire.
