I took the driver side kick panel off to try and locate the plug that I would need to go into. There's a row of 4 of them but all 4 of them have the male and female connected with wires coming out of each. Yet I don't have factory cab lights. I assumed the plug I needed would only have the one side and then I would plug into that. Am I missing something here??
EDIT: I looked a little more and there are actually 2 additional connectors behind that row of 4. But they also are connected to something.



Sorry it's kind of blurry

Ford SD - the connection I have is behind the passenger side kick panel. I see you have an '89 though. Mine is a '96. You might want to check the other kick panel.
EDIT: I just read somewhere that 1980-1991 should be on the drivers side.

IIRC it is behind the E brake(80-91)

But if you went and got a junk yard harness,,,,,,,,, it is right where you removed it from

Where can the gray connector be bought from? What is it called? The factory harness I got was cut off.

Great write up! Is there an online source for the factory harness or should I keep on checking junkyards?

So I found a complete set from an 88. So I would only have to change the plug right? And instead of running the harness down the drivers side I would go down the passenger side pillar since my truck is a 92+? Thanks

How in install cab lights

Hi. I have a 1994 F350 Crew Cab. My question is, does anyone know the spacing on center for the cab lights? I know for my model they were originally laid out in a straight line, which is what I plan to do; but I need to know the distance apart. Thank you.

Not trying to be rude, but did you read the first post of this thread? He literally tells you exactly how to lay them out. Go back and read it.

Yes I saw it, the second time I read it; I must have skimmed over it the first time. I'm trying to delete my question in an attempt to avoid additional replies but I'm new to the forum and haven't figured out how to do that yet.
