Looks great! Do you have any part numbers for the LED strips and rocker switch?

The bed rails are already angled that way. The bed rails curve in toward the bed @ a "45" degree angle. Perfect for applications like this.

Just what he said, the bed is formed just right for these applications.

This is my next mod!!! I already have the lights and the wire loom. But, I do have some questions about switch placement and wire routing.

1. Do you have any more pics of where the switch is mounted?

2. How did you route the wires from under the bed rails to down below to the trailer harness. ? Your pics look really clean as wiring goes. Did you pull off the rail caps and go from there, then down the tail light to thw trailer harness?


This is the switch I was thinking of using. Switch Led would be lite when off then push button and bed leds come on. push again and bed leds go off, switch led comes on.

I did a similar setup but I took my wires to the main fuse panel under Hood.. mounted switch to the plastic bed liner at the left side just behind taillight area above the cargo hooks.. dropped the wire down the taillight chase and followed then wireing harness along frame to the fuse box. I'll take pics if you need
