2022 Lariat Lightning ER
Hi - I have searched this forum and general f150 forums for details on wiring a 3rd brake light on an installed canopy. I have yet to find detailed specific instructions for the lightning. I am sure someone has done it on this forum. Any specific guidance with pictures someone could provide before I go disassembling my frunk looking for a specific wire? If it exists elsewhere, a friendly link would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I just had this done by Jasper Camper Sales in Michigan. https://www.facebook.com/jaspercampersales/

Maybe if you ask nice or send him some money he will help guide you through it.

From what I saw and was able to see, you gotta remove the front drivers side fender liner next to the wheel/tire. Then, there is a little wire that needs to be pulled out and tapped into. Meanwhile, you gotta get to the 12v battery in the Frunk and get power from that as well. Sorry, my memory is foggy on it as I was distracted by all the nice old trucks/cars in his yard.

This is what the wire looks like from the drivers side inner fender (but NOT the location in the picture, it just has the same end piece and similar gauge)

Also, ARE has a guide that works on a Lightning. I know this because this is what Jasper used to hook it up for me.
