They're at the dealership for $93. They have the pigtails for $8 too.

By pigtail your are talking about the plug that connects to the 3rd light itself?

Yes. Non raptor trucks have 3 bulbs, 2 white and 1 red. The raptor has the same 2 white bulbs and 3 red LEDs that operate as running and brake lights.

The pigtail allows the larger plug on non raptor models to plug right in.

Idk if it works properly without an added wire to power the running function.

The above part number has been superseded, the last letter has changed to a G. The difference is they supposedly don't leak like the original.

Correction.

The harness is slightly different, the pigtail IS this harness. When the dealer explained it it sounded like an adapter of some kind.

Anyway. Ordered the harness and brake light. He said the 2012 should have the +12v for running lights, and if it doesn't work to make sure there is a fuse in the correct spot. Will update.

Any update? Foes than mean that this is a simple plug and play, nothing extra to run?

Stupid auto correct. What I meant was, is this a simple plug and play install, or is another wire needed for the running lights? I have a '12 Screw.
