Rigid Cargo/Bed Lights installed

[justvettn]

Recently installed a BedRug And Bak F1 bed cover and noticed how dark it is when I open the tailgate now that the cargo light no longer shines in the bed. So decided to install some Rigid LED lights in the truck bed.

Just, how are you turning them on/off?

looks good and bright! how did u wire them up? how r they mounted?

They are wired using a Rigid wiring harness with a 3 amp fuse. I turn them on using the Rigid switch its illuminated red in the picture. For mounting I used velcro, grabs great to the BedRug material.

How many of the LED Dome Lights did you install?

I have the same setup as you, and agree, it's dark back in there

I don't want you to go through any trouble, but a simple list of what you used would be helpful to recreate your setup.

Not a problem, I used 4 of the Rigid LED's 1 Rigid wiring harness that was not used from an E-series light, came with a switch that lights up red when the lights are on and a fuse holder, I swapped out the 15 Amp for a 3 Amp, some velcro and about 20' of red 18 gauge wire to extend harness up to the battery, you could cut into the vehicles harness but I cant cut a harness on a new truck. I also used some cheap 20 gauge speaker wire that I had to wire up the 4 lights and 30' of wire loom, That's about it.

I had a couple of PM's wondering what wiring harness I used, so here is a picture of the spare Rigid harness that I used, this one was from a 4" light so it had no relay which was perfect for the very low amp draw these lights have. I think you can buy these from Rigid separately.
