White Lightning LED Tailgate Light Bar

[BUDMAN]

I picked up an 8-lug magazine last week and noticed an advertisement for a LOF with white backup lights integrated into the normal functions.  I don't think I have seen them on the board before, so here it is.

I just ordered one of these.  I have been looking around but can't find instructions to hard wire this.  
I have found the suggestions about using the T-Connector but I actually would prefer to tap into the trailer lights.

Can someone tell me what the right wires to tap into are.

Thanks

 

[njblackave19]

ok i just ordered my second one hahahaha, i love it.

as far as the hardwiring goes, what i personaly prefer doing, this is how i did my sail pannel lights, i dont go through the trailer harness, i wired them right into the tail lights. in your owner booklet, there is a section in the trailering part that tells you what wire controls what, i dont remember the page off the top of my head, but try that out, let me know if you need more help. drive safe, andrew

hey bluewood, that lighting at my 3rd brake light is the recon white lightning, im glad you like it, i get alot of compliments on it, especially from the cops around here, haha. btw, does anyone know if this t-connector will work for the lof? is this the same thing as previously posted t connectors? thanks guys, drive safe, andrew

I have the Fire and Ice..as far as the reverse lights they do not illuminate enough to help you back up...more for warning someone you are backing up...I got very dark tail lamp and thouhgt this would help but it did not as far as reverse lights...still looks cool though.

Thanks for pointing me towards the owner's manual. 

I just opened my manual from the resources section of this web site.  For an 04 here is what it says:

The eight-wire harness contains the following trailer
circuits:
? Yellow: Left Stop/Turn Signal
? Dark Green: Right Stop/Turn Signal
? Brown: Taillamps
? White: Ground
? Light Green: Back-up Lamps
? Light Blue: CHMSL
? Red: Battery Feed
? Dark Blue: Trailer Brake
