Default OPT7 Sequential Sidekick

Any one installed these on 15 and up F150? Like to see some vids if they are out there.......Google didnt help much.
Where did you end up running wires to? I was thinking cargo light for entry, tails for blinkers, either parking for running lights, ground wherever.....

And you ran the wires to where? Funny thing their website used to say not useable on 15+ f150s.

I ran R,Y,B wires straight to the front of the truck. I wanted the sequential pattern to flow front to back. I ended up taking off my front mud flaps, pulling the fender liner out a little and drilling through the foam and coming out through the fender at the front of the door. Ran those up over the liner into the engine bay to the headlights. Posi tapped them to the appropriate wires for parking lights and blinkers. The white wire I drilled a tiny hole through the pinch welds( cleaned up burrs with a file) and went up through the front floorboards at OEM grommets. Then over to the sill trays and ran back as far as they would go. I did the posi-taps again off the cargo light like other installs, but I ran a wire for each side instead of tying them together. I'll get some pics when I'm not working nights.....

Under the floorpans I used some zip tie "anchors" to keep the wires from dangling all around.
