New 2015 LED under-hood lighting

I looked at some of the brand new 2015 Super Duties at work and they have LED under-hood lighting. Can someone with a 2015 confirm to me that the part number is the same?

Here you go......Not exactly the part number you were looking for, but the best I can do for now.

So is the underhood light in a location that is worth a darn (checking oil or transmission fluid) and is it **BRIGHT** ???

One thing one of my older Chebby trucks had that I really liked was an underhood light that was removable and had a magnetized base that you could stretch the retractible cord all the way to the back of the truck to get out the spare and change a tire in the dark..

this is what i did to mine, put a rigid industries dome light much much brighter at night
used a rigid switch in the factory hole thats there since the stock light shuts off when you close the hood were as this one will not ran the wires in the hood for the cleanest look and only cost $40

I just soldered some wire to the bulb contacts and used a water proof LED strip from Amazon. 10 bucks, super bright.

I just had to, curiosity was killing me. When I did pop it for the first time two days after I got her home and said "wow, a LED light!!"

I'm going to have to take a peak tomorrow when I uncover my boat, and dig it out of the garage to bring to Sherm's for a checkup.
