Just bought a used raptor light. The lens just needs to be polished, and should look great. Only problem is the seller did not have a harness. Does anyone have one that I could buy?

also, I pulled my headliner a little bit, and found that I do not have the fourth wire for the running light. Looks like I will have to tap into something for that. What is the closest source to tap into for running lights back there? Or will I have to run the wire all the way up to the passenger foot well fuse box?

my F150 is a 2013 platinum supercrew.

I'd run from a parking lamp circuit to the 3rd brake light. Shouldn't be too bad. Run from the fuse box under the door sills, up the rear trim panel, and under the head liner. I'd definitely get the harness to the light. It'd save yourself a lot of headache.

I ran a running light wire from the headlight switch to the rear light on my 11 platty

Anyone know where I can get one of the Raptor lights at a reasonable price these days?

I'm somewhat more interested in the new/better seal. My truck is a 2014, do I even need to worry about it?

Keep checking the raptor forums, shops, and Facebook sites. Got mine new for $80. There was a guy on one of the raptor pages that did have a new one for sale not that long ago.

Yours looks tinted around the edges.. Did you do anything to it.
Mine is a factory Raptor light (not sure what year light I was sent) and it's clear.
