2011 Super Cab Missing Dome Light

I have a 2011 super cab and there is no dome light. My father has a 2012 super cab and it does have one. Is this something they added in 2012. Could I install one in mine?

I have a 2014, but I don't remember if it has a dome light or not. It has the two reading lights in the ceiling console, but I can't for the life of me remember if it has a dome light. I will look tonight when I get home and see.

Circling back around on this. I've looked at pictures of older super cabs and they seem to have a dome light. Wondering why mine doesn't. Anyone else missing one? I am thinking of buying one on ebay, taking the headliner out, and cutting a spot and tapping into the power wires for the map lights.

Glad to hear I am not the only one. Interesting that all of us missing it have 2011 supercabs, yet the older and newer years have them. It's like they forgot to put them in that year. It's annoyingly dark in the back of the cab at night.

Agreed! My 2000 f150 xl scab had a dome light. Makes no sense to me why a 2011 upper trim would not have one!

I’ve got a 2011 Lariat Supercab.....no dome lights either so it doesn’t seem to be a trim level thing. Only the maps....been one of my pet peeves with the truck.

Looks like 2011 trucks did not have them. Then they must have received enough complaints and added them back in the following year.
