I wonder if you can do this and upgrade the bulb to something much brighter

without some additional ways to reject heat, a higher wattage bulb and 'always' on are a recipe for melting down the light housing.

Looks like the F150 light is brighter than ours...
May be interchangeable 🤷

LED will be less hot than a traditional bulb.

LED’s have very little surface area and will quickly heat up over time. Yes generally it takes a lower wattage to equate the same light output as regular halogen bulbs so they usually produce significantly less heat comparatively however you can still cause problems. There was a person on here that had an issue with their license plate light staying on and it melted the plastic in the housing

Snapped a quick pic under the dash... Exact same plug, different colour. Can't make out all the wire colours.
Have to take a closer look

Did you ever figure this out. I had done this on my raptor and used it often. It’s a worth while hack if someone can figure it out.

I decided I don't really need this... Left it alone

I would be very happy if we could at least find a way to increase the speed at which the light can be turned on. I will rarely need additional lighting at less than 5mph, but slightly faster than that, yes.

This plug doesn't impact the side spots, there's one in each side of the dash, not sure what they are for though. Anybody else try finding the wiring for these yet?
