🚨Hey guys there are two methods to this install. If you want a subtle light glow, do it my way. If you want a more noticeable bright glow do the install as instructed by F150 LEDS. Enjoy the upgrade and thanks for watching!
I was looking to put some lights on my 22 powerboost. I want to be able to change the colors and do some other things so I will search for a different setup for my own.
Would love to take this premise and have the side mirror amber signal lights come on as running lights when the other lights are on. Very clean installation done with this kit here, good job - “if you’re going to take the time to do it, take the time to do it right”

How well does the silicone hold up? That doesn’t look like it will last long. I was about to do mine with epoxy. I came here to see how you pulled the vents. Great install. I think the silicone will eventually break loose.
I have a 2014 STX and even tho his truck compared to my truck is night and day with how Ford done things. I think it really gives nice accent with the black midnight pearl paint. I would've gone with a red LED but to which it's own.
after installing them today ,they are not that bright like yours. I did the same method.all lights turn on . will try the method they suggested instead
Just ordered this for my truck. Had to get it with white light. New York State has made it illegal to attach any other color to the exterior of your vehicle.
Well, the mounting tape was already coming off the LED’s when I received the kit. I think there’s a better way, but not sure what that is. The instructions were not clear. I think you did a great job the way you did it. I would never have thought about doing it that way. Also, on the 250, you can’t fish a wire up through to the engine compartment. The instructions say to drill an 11/16” hole up through 2 pieces of metal, which I was reluctant to do.
Wish I could find this same video for wiring hookup in a 2022 F-150. It’s quite different. Followed all of your instructions, but now I’m stumped when it comes to splicing/wiring the side vent lights.
They make adapters so you don't have to splice into factory wires, lookup Starkey Adapters. Then if you have any warranty work, unplug them and nobody will be the wiser.
Wow great installation idea. I was going to buy the F150leds lights but didn’t like the install the way they presented it - mounted under the rim of the vent - because the night pics showed way too much glare on the door and mirrors. I wanted the light to be more subtle and your method of mounting is superior and exactly what I wanted. Now I’ll buy the lights! Thank you!
@@AutoHeadz I just installed new headlights on my 2019 and I’ve done the same thing and I find myself asking my wife how good they look and she tired of hearing about it lol.
I putting mine in now. What a pain if you have the OEM LED headlamps. I have finally figured out the pins for the wiring harness...which even though the pins are the same for right and left, some of the wire colors are different. My cousin works for Ford and I have the actual diagrams for my VIN. Now that I have all the wiring figured out the question is what is the equivalent name for "side marker" because there is no side marker on the headlamp assembly. The choices are "side select", park, or turn since obviously not daytime running, high beam or low beam. There is also a VPWR that I have not the faintest idea what it is for. F-150leds was trying to help but they were perplexed as well.
@@r7j7t7 lol oh man! Sounds complicated lol. Ok, I can’t say with 100% certainty BUT I am 90% sure it’s going to be “park”. A parking light is always going to be a light that is on 100% of the time and the park light on these F150’s is wired up the same as the side marker…SO..I would assume that for all practical purpose the “side marker light” is considered the “park light”.
Of course! No problem at all. These are amber. If you ever need help with picking a color let me know and I’ll send you the link so you get the one you want. They have a bunch of different colors.
another question if I have the lariat with led ,it says wiring is different, do I connect to the plug beneath the one you disconnected? instructions on web page is just a picture, that to for a average joe looks like brain surgery
@@AutoHeadz I’ve seen your channel and videos before, but this video in particular was stumbled on after I searched on upgrading the taillight harness for bliss lighting on the 2021s.
Ok gotcha. Thank you for letting me know. What kind of content would you like to see in the future? Maintenance? Detailing? I really appreciate the feedback.
finally got it to work man. thanks your video was very helpful. I had to install to the led lights, 3nded up being pin 3 and 7 on driver and 3 and the only black wire with yellow line on the passenger side. FYI people make sure those clips slice kit really go in
Thanks for the video. I almost did it the simpler, less professional way. Great video.

I agree with you. I like the idea of mounting them further back for a more subtle look 👌

THANK YOU GUYS!
This video is blowing up quick!
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has liked and subscribed. You guys are awesome. ☝🏻

Thank you. Seems to be holding up fine so far. No doubt epoxy would last longer.
@@AutoHeadz I just did mine and decided to put them in the other way. They came out great.
@@travisc3571 Awesome man. They look great like that too. Nice and vivid. Take care man enjoy your Sunday.

u stick then inside the lip. you won't see the lights. they tuck Inside. and they are much brighter. the whole area glows.
Absolutely. Just depends on what look you are going for.

Awesome step by step
Awesome job whoever is holding the camera 👍🏻
Thank you!
Looks amazing inspired me to want to do mine
I bought this kit for my F250, but was not satisfied with the quality of the kit nor the instructions to mount the LED’s.
What would you like to see different. I’m thinking of developing my own.
Well, the mounting tape was already coming off the LED’s when I received the kit. I think there’s a better way, but not sure what that is. The instructions were not clear. I think you did a great job the way you did it. I would never have thought about doing it that way. Also, on the 250, you can’t fish a wire up through to the engine compartment. The instructions say to drill an 11/16” hole up through 2 pieces of metal, which I was reluctant to do.
I’m working on one. 👍🏻 I’ll keep you posted.
do you know if there is a way to keep the mirror signals on all the time and blink for the turn signal?
Looks awesome man, nice job! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Nice looks good

this is awesome....but I like my warrenty. I don't have the confidence to do this.

Thank you! Definitely a more subtle look. Enjoy them!
Can one simply just wire into the fuse box?
Very detailed video. Great work.
Thanks!
You could use crazy glue
Great finish
Does it blink with the signals?
No they just stay solid the whole time the truck is on.
Looks bad ass!
Dude!!! It’s sooo sick! Lol. Iv been taking random drives at night to pick up a drink just for an excuse to look at it lol.
@@AutoHeadz I just installed new headlights on my 2019 and I’ve done the same thing and I find myself asking my wife how good they look and she tired of hearing about it lol.

what color are those? sorry I'm colorblind don't know if it's green or red
Of course! No problem at all.

the lights stay on all the time right?
Yes.

Wish i knew how to install a switch to turn them on and off. I think it be cool to be able to control them.
Hmmm maybe I’ll work on that next. I’ll keep you posted.
@@AutoHeadz if you came up with a solution and instructional then im getting the lights lol! Thanks for the reply.
I’ll see what I can do lol. Can I ask how you came across this video?
