Raptor grill accent lights

Thanks, red wire to the fuse then black wire to ground ?

Yup. I think I grounded them to where the battery grounds to the body.
Snaking the wire under the dash was fun. Lol. There is an opening to go through the center

Recommend test one before you commit wiring. Depends on who made the light. I’ve gotten them from Amazon (China) that power OR ground can be black/red/white.

The hot. Brought the wire from the fuse to the drivers side then through a rubber gromet on the door frame and into the engine bay.

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

This is the first picture I've seen where the nudge bar can be used with lights as to not interview with the 360+ radar. Is that the Rough Country Nudge bar?

Yep, no interference at all.Yes, this is the RC Nudge Bar.

originally was supposed to receive DRL ready Light Bar/Nudge Bar combo (which would also not interfere with 360+) but the DRL light bar was on back order for 5 weeks. I had just purchased my BS and eager to pack out, so I wasn’t going to wait that long.

I ended up getting the light bar that was not DRL, and will eventually mount that to my roof basket, but I found these 7 inch 3 way lights that were perfect for the nudge bar.

Just required a little mounting bracket adjustments, but they work great

So, I bought some lights, but I have no idea if where I would like to put them is feasible. The picture shows where I would like for them to be. Input anyone?

When I installed a set on my '19 Ranger, the connection was so easy. You plugged the lights with an adapter into the side marker light for a true easy plug and play installation. No stick on lights too.I'm not a fan of how this one gets its power.

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.

I have a potentially dumb question; if you wanted the lights on all the time (whenever the car is on) could you just connect the power wire to the positive terminal on the battery and the connect the ground wire to the grounding spot in the engine bay? Or would this cause a bad/negative strain on the battery?

Not a dumb question…but no. You need power from a source that would be switched on with the vehicle. If you powered it straight from the battery with no switch the lights will stay on even if the vehicle is off.
