I agree. My 2011 XLT had the plugs, and I installed similar lights. My 2017 King Ranch does not have the plugs! This is a bit baffling to me.

Lariat Ultimate here. I'm sure there is rhyme or reason, but I can't figure it out. Maybe because I ordered mine and didn't spec the power steps, so there was no reason for the factory to include plugs? That's all I can figure.

Man you nailed it. With all the different mounting locations. I think this one looks the best. What mounting location did you use? It looks like the door channel and not the frame, any info would be awesome! I'm thinking about doing an all Amber strip. see how that looks.
Also, are those running boards the N-Fab Bed access ones? Look really good.

If possible do you remember which wire where (and how) you tapped power? Did you string them all together or run each power wire separately?
Sorry for all the questions; No reason to reinvent something that works and apparently you did a good job!!
Thanks for any help you can provide.

I can't tell you which wire it was by color, it's been awhile. I removed the passenger tail light and tapped into the wire there so my tsp would be protected ftom the elements. I tapped two wires into the tail light wire so i could run one down each side of the truck. I ran those wires through the frame to the first light on each side then ran the wires from light to light.
