Bed lighting switch

[Fawnbuster]

Has anybody added a switch in the bed to activate the bed lights? This seems to be an oversight by Ford it just doesn’t make sense why there would not be one.. There has to be an easy fix to just add a switch.

I wired my Gen5 lariat to a wire by the backdoor, identified by a few members. Mine work when I unlock or open a door however I can reactivate my lights by hitting the unlock button on my key fob. Might try that. Mike

Curious if anyone was able to easily make this work. I have a Lariat with the factory bed lights and they’re plenty bright enough. Just hate the switch location. I asked ChatGPT and got some options but I don’t want to run a new wire from the cab where the control module is to the bed to locate a switch. I asked about wireless options and got some ideas but I was hoping someone already did all the hard work and research could point us to an easy button. It’s only an inconvenience but you’d think Ford would realize owners might want to turn on the bed lights from the bed.
