Default wire harness behind passenger pillar??

So my pops who is a pretty big guy grabbed the handle on the passenger side pillar and broke the pillar... Pulled the screws right thru the plastic.. Needless to say I was pissed but using some washers and a super adhesive it was fixable.. My question is when I pulled the pillar off to fix it there were some wires with a harness on the end of it.. What is it for?? I will try and get some pics up of it soon.. I was kinda hoping its for Cab Clearance Lights since I want to put them on anyways... So any help would be greatly appreciated...

you are correct, that connector is for clearance lights. both recon and OEM clearance lights utilize it.

ahh dont go amber though.. deff clear or smoked, just my .02.. Rubberfrog has a really good video DIY on how to install the cab lights somewhere on here.. Theres also a thread I used when i did mine that really helped with the layout for where to drill the holes, ill try and find it tomorrow.

I'd check your local and or state laws on white lights above the stock headlamps. My state is **** with the hood lights /those blue led's you see on the rice burners they will give you an inspection ticket and of course you will fail if you decide too leave them on. bummer!!

The smoked ones are still an orange light, just a black housing. Get those.

My smoked ones have been through inspection without issue, and we have tough inspections in my county.

Frog Man it seems its been FOREVER since you've done a mod, and even longer since you've done a video. Anxiously awaiting one...
