It has been a 5-6 months since I installed and I can't remember what I ate for supper last night. Anyway......... pretty sure I used 12 gauge ....... may have used 14. I looked at some wire guides to determine size/gauge.

Great write up. Since I didn't want any lights hanging below my truck (tired of burying them in snow banks in the winter), I invested in a pair of Whelen Ion duals mounted on a Whelen license plate bracket. Each Ion is about $125 and the bracket was $20. Very easy to mount and no lights hanging below the bumper.
I have the red/clear IONS (D code from factory). They flash red and have clear override. The Ions are available in red/clear. blue/clear and amber/clear combinations. Whelen even makes an Ion trio (r/b/w). If tyou want to add extra stop/turn signals, use can use the steady burn feature of the Ion and wire to the left and right stop/turn wire of your truck. I have the reds set to flash since I am authorized to have red emergency lights on my truck.
I am just a big fan of Whelen products. All are made in either new Hampshire or Connecticut, come with a 5 year no questions asked warranty and have incredible customer service people. I am no way affiliated with Whelen, other than being friends with several employees (wish I got their discount).
Safe miles all.
I have a video posted on you tube to see these lights in action.
