NEW Clear LED 3rd Brake Light
#1
#5
Simple plug and play.
The surround was chrome, so I gave it a light sand, a few coats of flat black, and a few coats of clear.
The harness in the truck has 3 prongs (ground, brake lamp, acc lamp) and the harness on the light has 3. I would have figured that the acc lamps would light up with the door ajar or the acc lamps on with the interior light wheel.
My stocker had only the brake lamp so it's harness just had 2 prongs. I'll have to check that out when I bring the truck in the garage. Too cold outside.

Just like the one I bought I think. Is yours just the regular or the 'smoked' one?
As far as the cargo lights, if your truck is an early 2003 or older it likely has the correct harness and it should light up right now.
The stock light only had 2 prongs because it didn't have the cargo lights in it. Had it been the red and white CHMSL there likely would've been three prongs.

I have a hard-flipup tonneau cover, cargo lights have no use.
I will be installing 2- 6 foot white LED strips in my bed for MEGA bright lighting as soon as the temperature gets in the ranger where I can work in the truck.

I may put a light coat of Niteshade on it though, just to "smoke" it.
I'm going to take it off tomorrow and look at the harness. The post for the acc lights may have been pushed out and it's probably not making contact.

Yeah, wasn't a fan of the chrome when I opened the box. I don't have any on the truck, so it would stick out. Looks much better painted black.
