I found these on Amazon. If you check review pictures, they appear to be installed easily on older models as well (F10).

brh189 Which way did you route the wires?


I plan on hooking mine up at the FEM once I determine with pin/wire is for the ground lights. I should be able to trace the wire from x28*1b into the cabin.

I started on mine this past weekend and routed the wire into the cabin though a plug underneath the footwell carpet. Just cut a cross slot in the middle of the plug (and one cut going all the way to the edge if you need to) for the wire.
