All hooked up and working. I’m Loving the Raptor trim lights!

Looks great!

A winch would fit perfectly in between your nudge bar lights?.

Yeah… I’ve put down a few hints to the wife and kids for Fathers Day presents

Did you splice into the parking lights? Or run them separate into a lighting control for your other lights?

they are low amperage, so I don’t think there would be an issue if you did splice into the parking lights.
I didn’t splice into them though. I had a 6 gang rocker switch that I had installed primarily for the 7” 3-way lights, so I just ran the raptor accents into the controller for the switch panel. They are running on a 10 amp relay and have full brightness.
Because the Controller needed a fuse tap into a key start fuse for switch panel LED power, I leave the rocker switch for the accents on and they power on and off on their own when o start the car.

I spliced into the driver’s side front parking light and it worked perfectly.

Exactly which lights did you use? Have a link to them?

Nice! I didn’t want to mess too much with splicing after reading a bunch of wiring horror stories with the BS. Glad it worked out for you!

I would never use that winch; that bull bar isn't connected to the frame as the tow hooks do. Looks great but might do some damage if used.

Is that the marker light at the bottom of the bumper

Yessir! There is very little wire to work with but it wasn’t too hard. And just to save everyone time, hot is the blue/lavender wire.

It was actually pretty easy. Just make sure your connection is water tight. I used these:

Wirefy T Tap Wire Connectors Kit - Electrical Connectors Kit - Spade Terminals - Quick Splice Disconnect Wire Taps - (120 PCS 22-10 AWG) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077YB123S/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_6BTE9DW13XN4FA07ERYD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
