After i pulled off my oem Running Boards & installed N-Fab's i kinda missed the exterior lighting which came on after opening the door, unlocking/locking door's, etc. so i installed some self stick sealed led light strips & just tapped into the existing wiring.....Very easy & super bright !!!

* Ive also replaced ALL my interior lighting w/LED's (brighter & nicer to look at)....No Pic's on hand though

Nice lights Nice Work Truck, what did you use under the bumper?

King, how well do those light up the ground? I have AMP steps and i like the recon big rig lights so i was thinking of taping the courtesy lights into those or mounting strips under the cab that face the ground and using the AMP wiring so they light up with the door opening. i want the effect like in the link Madson posted those light up great!

I added some flush mounted ID lights to the rear of my bed:



You can see the 3 center lights better in this video, this is before I added the outer 2:

And I also changed out my front turn signal bulbs to Switchbacks, and I wired them to work as DRL's also:

Heres mine, got the idea from other members here. Except I just went on amazon and got a 5meter strip of LEDs for like $8 lol.


(from the drivers seat)


and running lights



LED cab light bulbs w/ clear lenses, LED mirror lights w/ clear lenses, LED rear ID bar under tailgate, LED third brake light w/ clear lense, non-LED (for now) side marker lights, cree LED projector back up bulbs

Miles did you wire those into your dome light? Im thinking of getting two different LED strips one facing down that's white and one facing out that's Amber.

Are those strictly on KR and lariat trucks or do you think my 04 XLT might have that connector as well? I could always try to tap into the AMP steps I'm not sure if that would work though.
