Thanks Mike. I pulled that up on Amazon as well and it's $49.99 there for the 60-inch set. However, I don't think anyone responded that they had these installed on theirs - right?

Anyone have a link for the CURT connector that would work with my 2017 ? I've found a few of these light bars on Amazon but I've seen reference to several different models of the CURT connector harness in the user reviews.

I actually have a set brand new never used. I’d be interested if someone could tell me what exact wires to tap and where to find them

This should tell you which wire is which. Maybe someone who has installed them can help you with the rest.

Yea I have that as well just don’t know exactly what wire and where it’s located.

So Ive had a number of tailgate light bars and none of them seem to last. I want red and white only, super bright, and is durable to last. What would be some recommendations for the best one i can find?
my opt7 3 bar light bar just began to fail. I received it as a Christmas present from my wife this past year and installed it in mid to late January. I hard wired everything, which was a pain in the *** because i had to go to the taillights to get the bar to light up when headlights/parking lights were on. i removed the spare tire grommet when i installed and bridged the hole with the light bar. i used the 3m tape on the back to stick it to the body. i just noticed this morning that when i turn on the truck, the area where the spare tire grommet was is illuminated white, and the red bar only illuminates when brakes are applied (not the dimmer light when headlights are on). Also, my right sequential turn signal only lights about halfway from middle to right, and the left signal is dimly let when the right one is on. seems like a total failure of the wiring within the unit. though it's weird how the reverse light failure is local to that damn spare tire hole. i will get some pics later and upload. anyone else experience anything similar?
yes, it's very disappointing indeed. i have a theory (maybe a reach) that since i installed the light bar in the winter and the weather here is very hot now, that some expansion was responsible for the internal failure. Since i'm using the supplied 3M tape, may the plastic housing wasn't allowed to expand at the same rate that the led strip was expanding, and it found a weak point where the light bar bridged the flange around the spare tire release opening (the light bar was slightly bent at this location). so as the led strip expanded, it sort of crinkled or crunched at the bend points, breaking some connections along the led strip.I didn't pull the trigger cuz of this... a year or 2 can go by fast in truck world, to have something this expensive and 'obvious' fail is a shame indeed.
