Default Raptor style lighting

I have some lights I wanted to install kind of like the Raptor lights in the grill. Was trying to figure out which fuse to tie into using a fuse tap so they come on with the headlights / marker lights.
My last truck was a GMC and tapping into the fuse block seemed so much easier than the Ford. The owner's manual says in the underhood fuse box that fuse #22 & #23 are for the headlights, can I just use a fuse tap on either of these?
Thanks for the help , Kenny

If you want to, sure. When I had my Raptor grill, I tapped the driver side parking light to power my 3 grill lights.

It's either Starkey or Custom Auto Works, that has a harness to allow you to do just what you want, and avoid cutting into your OEM wiring.

yeah definitely use an adapter instead of those wire crimps or vampire crimps. i actually bought a harness from customausoworksstore.com that let me have the raptor lights on whenever the truck is on. it came with an add a fuse on the end and i used it in fuse 10, which was for the rain sensor.

Bringing back an old thread.
I saw somewhere and can't find it now, someone had posted a part number from Amazon for the headlight wire so you could splice into the new wire and keep your old one to return it back to factory.
I'm still wanting to do the raptor style lighting, just haven't gotten to it yet

Post #3 has the info you seek regarding an adapter. Just Google both of those brands.
