Default Adding 3rd brake Raptor light...

Hi guys, I just purchased a 2014 XLT Supercrew F150 and was looking to install a Raptor 3rd brake light. To my understanding, if the truck has a 4th wire it will be plug and play and if not you need to add a wire from the fuse box to have the daytime running lights. I took mine off and I believe I only have 3 wires. I posted some pictures below, if someone could take a quick look and confirm I only have the 3 wire versions (hopefully I'm missing something and I have the 4th haha) I would really appreciate it. As always, any help is greatly appreciated!

You would have to see the harness that the 3rd brake light is connected to..

Thanks for the quick reply and sorry for my ignorance I am still new to all this. Where exactly would I be able to find that harness so I can check?

Man, that is really tough to see. I feel I will bend it bad. I really couldn't see. I think I will pick a 3rd light up and just give it a shot! I do have the 4x4 off road package will hill descent, I heard that might be the determining factor

Some others on here have that and didn't have the forth wire.when I did mine,I pulled the 2 pins and pulled the head liner out of the d pillars on the side a little bit.

You most likely have it. Mine was a 13 with the offroad packaged and hill decent. Mine had it.
