They’re for the power to the RamBoxes. All the trucks are wired for RamBoxes, so if you don’t have them the cables are just hanging there. I tied mine up and out of the way.

Could these be used to wire up bed lights or running lights or something? I am not familiar with the ram boxes, so I'm not sure what power they need/use.

Have you figured out what they go to? I want to add bed lights but I’m unsure where to tap into the wires. I’d prefer factory plug n play.

So it looks like I could tie my bed lights into this, and when I turn the dial inside the truck the beds lights will come on.

Possibly. I'll see if I can find the wiring diagrams for you

the ram box lights come on when the pressure switch is released, i wondering if its tied into the cab switch?

You could always take a simple light tester and try.

Glad to have this figured out. Seems they could possibly be useful for something assuming they're functional and powered.

Recently did a Rambox bed swap and also have the two connectors on each side for locks/lights. Is there a part number for the wire harness? Where do those connectors plug into? Thanks in advance
