Custom Truck Puddle Lights - Must Have

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Today we decided to install some awesome ground flood lights on the truck. Our truck did not come with the factory puddle lights so we decided to one up that and install a flood of light. It works the same as the factory puddle lights where they turn on when you open the door or press unlock on the key fob. Super easy install and way worth it. Not to mention it looks awesome.

    Yes! It made this process really easy compared to doing it on the f150, where we had to run wire and slice into the wire harness under the passenger rear door floor cover. Lights still work great to this day. We highly reccomend.

    Hell yea, I prob should have ran my strip around the end like y’all, instead of drilling that little hole and running the wires threw that. If it fails I’ll do it this way. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

    Great video! I have one question, why didn't you just run the light strips from back to front, and cut off the excess, or did you not want to break the factory sealed end?

  • @Jimmy2Tech

    We try to keep a factory sealed end. The the plug we plugged it in to was a little more toward the rear so that was just the route we choose. Either or would work, it's your prefernce really :)

    Up over top of the brake cable on the driver's side would have been a better choice. Zip tied to the other wire bundle would keep it up and out of way avoiding any chance of getting snagged.

    Do you know if both driver and passenger puddle lights are supposed to stay on for a few seconds after locking the truck? I noticed they both come on when unlocking my truck but then only driver stays on for a few seconds after locking. Can't find a answer anywhere any information would be appreciated ty

    It was not a port or plug really, we tapped into the wiring harness that runs under the door sill.

    It could work but the board would block a large portion of the light so it won't be as great.

    Hmm, if you're not seeing a plug and you can confirm it's not there, it may be set up where you'll have to tap into the wires like a 2017 f150. But it is strange the plugs aren't there.
