Huge shout out to JHForman812….can’t thank him enough. I had the factory connectors but had an issue with a short to ground in the factory wiring. Took the time to troubleshoot with me via text and ended up having to use his harness for the non-connector guys. Everything is finally working and looks great! I really appreciate him taking the time to help me out and his harness is top notch!!

Doing this mod on 2023 still in question? I'd like to do the foot wells and the cupholders and the back seat as well. All These seem to be a simple plug and play?

If you’re a 23 see if you have the open connections, it makes it easier, but either way it is doable on 23s I’ve solved it

Took a look this morning and I do have the open connections. Can I PM you for pricing on what I need?

Curious t0 see what changed - my truck had no connectors too.

No, I was going to make one myself - but honestly I can’t find my giant box of connectors from when I did the 2015 haha

I found all the extra OEM light parts though lol

I know you're busy and working third shift, but did I miss the updates to the 24 in the thread? Just got my new laptop and adapter - will be ordering the ambient lights soon. Just want to make sure I have all my ducks in a row so to speak!

No I haven’t done them yet, I was waiting on a terminal to show up so I could send it to the 24 guy and make sure it was the right one for the BCM, it went out yesterday but it will be next week before I have a confirmation

Completed this tonight. Was pretty straight forward with the exception of a Ford issue that caused a short to ground. Big thanks to @JHForman812 for the harness and the tech support. Even though I had the factory wiring ended up with the full harness set because of the short. Harness made the whole thing pretty easy. Works great, looks great.

Completed this today on my 2022 Lightning XLT. Big thanks to @JHForman812 and @b bo

Had some trouble getting the connections on the BCM hooked up. @b bo had some great photos on page 7 of this thread showing where to do it. I didn't insert them all the way the first time. I found its easy to use some needlenose pliers when inserting them.

Installed Media bin, cupholders and glove box light. Took me about 8 hours but I'm happy with the final result. Thanks again to @JHForman812 for the harnesses and being available to help me troubleshoot lol.
