cab lights

hey has anyone added cab lights on a 2014 f350? I did it a few years ago on an 08 with out any problems. I am more interested in where the wiring harness would plug in. I know on the 08 the harness also had the satellite radio antennae and it was located just above the parking brake, I can't seem to find it on the 2014

I added them to a 2011, here is the link to my experience. Can't imagine a 2014 being too different.

In my write-up, I note that there were seven different wiring harnesses available for my 2011 truck. It all depends on how many options your truck has on it. I had two plugs to find under the drivers side dash.

Are you looking for more light in the cab? I just swapped out all my bulbs for LEDs and got a much whiter and brighter light.

With my over 60 eyesight, trying to read anything with the standard lights was a challenge unless I put reading glasses on. With the brighter bulbs, I only need the glasses on the really small print.

If all you need is a brighter interior, it might be faster and cheaper to just swap out a few bulbs.

Jon - I guess I misunderstood this post. I thought he was adding cab clearance lights, like the ones that go outside and on the roof?

Is this something to add lights in the inside of the cab?

DAK I guess I totally miss-read that post. LOL

irly, the LEDs made a big difference to how bright my interior is.
I swapped the map lights for the two front seats and the rear dome light over the back seat

Usually I do that... misread the post...

I do like your mod of putting brighter LEDS in the cab.
