I know this is old but was extremely helpful in wiring my rigid ignite backup light using a relay for upfitter switch and when putting in reverse.

I'd still like to know what wire the left side wiring block under the hood near the brake booster has the reverse signal for the trailer wiring.
If so, that'd be the ideal spot to tap for an upfitter switch, rather than having to run wire all the way to the back to manually turn them on.

Any advice on running the wire to the upfitter? As in where I can run the long wire to the front. Not looking to connect to the reverse lights — just the upfitter. Any info would be appreciated.

I ran mine on the outside of the passenger side frame rail. A couple guys ran theirs inside the frame rail, using a fish tape.

I used expandable sleeving on the wire, wrapped that in split loom, then used Adel clamps screwed to the frame rail.

Use high temperature cover at the front.

You can buy all of this and more from Tony Candella here:

Best.

I finally got to take some pictures of the ignite and it’s absolutely amazing, super bright!
