It has been a few years since I have owned a pick up. Got one a few months back and am looking for some information
On the last ruck I had a hard shell tonneau cover. I hard wired a light with a switch and stuck it to the lid worked great. The new truck I decided to go with a vinyl roll up cover and am now looking for some lighting for the bed. Now that LED's are prominent, thought I would check in to see what others use.
Some of what I think I want for features: something like this. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075Z4QRBX/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B075Z4QRBX&SubscriptionId=AKIAIPFZKKNXUR5ABTTA&linkCode=as2&tag=bestprodtagl181046-20
1. Hard wired. No battery operation
2. No drilling holes in the bed installation
3. Auto off at a certain period of time
4. OEM look
I found one that meets these requirements by Robin Electronics but Amazon is out of them and Robin isn't responding to email enquirers. Ford sells what appears,to be the same system but they want $250 for what Robin sells for $60. Here's a link
