2017-2019 Ford Superduty - Raptor-Style Grille Lights Installation | Saturday Morning Installs

[@davidprice2250]

Great video, I have a 2018 E450 stripped chassis Winnebago Aspect 27K RV that I would like to add these grille lights to. Do you have a similar solution for the E450 wiring connections? My rig does not have DRL and I would like to have the grille lights come on when the ignition switch is in the "on" position so these grille lights will act like DRL. Thank you!

Hi David - Thanks for reaching out. I am afraid we don't have anything for halogen headlights that would provide power with ignition. We will have a parking light adapter available for these headlights soon, but it will only power on with the parking lights (basically anytime the headlights are on). If that would work, please feel free to reach back out soon!

Does this allow for the Raptor lights to be on all the time while the engine is on?...both running lights and headlights...or only when the headlights are on?

[@StarkeyProducts]

Great question, thanks for asking! The wire we connect to is the parking lights circuit, so anytime the headlight switch is in the Parking lights, Headlights, or Autolamps position, these lights will come on with the factory lights. These will not however, come on with the DRL's (Daytime Running Lights) which are the White LED "C" bars surrounding the headlight since that is controlled by a separate circuit. Also - If the switch is in the Autolamps position, the lights will not come on until the sensor detects low light levels outside.

@@StarkeyProducts Is there a workaround on this? maybe by using the Uplifter wiring?

[@StarkeyProducts]

You could definitely use an upfitter, but I personally would hate to waste one on this. The easiest work around would be to just tap into the DRL circuit on the headlight connector. If you let me know your model year we can tell you which wire color to look for. This would keep the lights on anytime the DRL’s are on.

@@SiennaPropertiesAustin Thank you - The wire you will be looking for on all 2017-2019 Superduty's is Gray with a Blue Stripe. It is Pin #4. It is always best to determine pin location # versus relying on the wire color - this is because sometimes the wire colors bleed onto each other over time. If you look closely at the back of the connector where the wires enter, there are numbers printed on the end of every row of terminals. I hope this helps out, thank you!
