There is a chance you might have gotten caught up in a connector change either from the Ford side or their side. I had that happen with the HID lights I bought. Some of these guys don't pay attention to the changes that the manufacturers make (both the vehicle and the people who supply them parts).
I am waiting for their projector lights to be available. Take a look at the statement they put on those. People were buying them for the 11s' only to realize afterwards Ford redesigned the lights on the new truck.
Give them a call. I had a ton of issues getting them to respond when my Recon running lights arrived brokem.

I took the lamp assembly out instead of just the bulb. What a dumb mistake. I called Recon and the guys said "you are going to laugh when I tell you what you did" lol. I did.

The reverse lights are the stock bulbs unless you opt to buy separate LED bulbs which I may over time. It's kind of weird they are not all together and I don't understand the reasoning. Maybe I will jump out at night and shoot a quick phone video.

Here is a short phone vid. The cargo lamps are not as bright as the stock which is fine with me (less bugs attracted when moving duck gear etc in the back in the early morning). The 3rd brake light is still bright as can be though. They look really good and I am happy with the results.
