Default Looking for Pigtails

I have the 2018 Ford Motor Company Motorcraft Wiring Pigtail Kits/Wiring Terminal Kits Identification Guide and can not find these in connectors in it. Can someone help me out? I am looking for the male and female pigtail for both of these connectors. I want to build a tee harness so I can install a tailgate light without using scotch locks. My truck is a 2020 F150 STX super cab and the connectors are at the end of the frame rail beside the spare tire.

You are not going to find pigtails for these connectors. If you want to build a tee harness you will need to buy the empty connector housings and terminal pins and make the harness up from scratch.

These are Molex connectors. You can see the part numbers printed on the connector housings. This is what I believe you have:

Molex 33482-6328 Male MX-150 Series Connector
12-Position Dark Gray Key-C
Plugged Positions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Alternate: Molex 33482-6261 All Positions Open
Molex 33000-0001 or 33000-1001 Tin Plated Male Terminal (14AWG)

Now, if this is too much for you, I would contact "2016boostedgreygoose" on this forum. He makes custom harnesses.

Thank you for all the info.
It looks like they are not priced too bad. Unless you know of a place?
One more thing, do you know the pin out? Because I am looking for the tail lights (stop, parking, signal, and reverse) and a switched power.

The prices of the parts is significantly less then if Ford had Motorcraft pigtails available. I would be buying from someone like Digikey. I think the pigtails are outrageously priced. I'm sorry, but I only have schematics for my 2016 and I'm sure they have changed since then. Maybe someone else will chime in with the schematics or connector pinouts you need.

This might help you.

Digikey or Mouser are two common places to buy these kind of parts.

Killer research 52merc, you provided a lot of info.

Yes Motorcraft pigtails are outrageous! I have purchased from Mouser before but not Digikey.

Do you still have the pinout schematics for the C408 connector for 2016? I have a 2016 XLT that has this connector that's just dead ended and I'd like to wire up a factory backup camera. The connector is there, I just need to know which wires/pins (and hopefully colors lol) to jump over to the tailgate harness. Any help would be greatly appreciated

C408 with empty connector

Wires to truck

New tailgate harness with lock and camera connectors

2 wire truck connector to old tailgate harness, I've added 5 wires for the camera on other side of connector
