I did this back on my 2013 F250. I used my F250 factory plug that would have been used for the King Ranch light boards. People loved it so much, I made a few more for friends. Good post man.
Appreciate it bro. 🤙🏾
Bruh... Do these actually glow white instead of violet??
Link to pics or info for the factory plug mod?
Mahalo's for the info and idea! I gonna do something like that for my truck. Solid !
Glad I could help bruh! 🤙🤙🤙
I did this with opt7 sequential strips on my truck.
Btw, leds are diodes, that means they only get power one way so the extra wires "at the front" don't do anything, unless you mounted the strip backwards, then it's the rear that wouldn't do anything.
I have those as well but haven't installed them yet. Where did you tie everything into for the power and turn signals?? Local shop wants $50 to put them in. I can't decide if I want to attempt it or pay the shop. Thx
@@scooterb43 mostly in the foot kick panel areas, mounted to the pinch weld (adhesion promoter and 3m double-stick tape, screws and clamps kept breaking, too small for the needed force to install) wiring went through the pinch weld at the rear of the front tires and into the floorpan through a grommet then tied into most of the wiring in the kick panels, I think I went into the door for the turn signals, but I dont recall.... it's been a little bit since I'd installed them.
Edit: I did poke and wrap, tape and zip for the connections, I didnt use those crimp things.... and dont have a portable soldering setup to be able to get in there if I wanted.
That’s the way you do it! 😎👍
Go big or go home! 😎😎
The caps were they 20 mm in size?
I’m saving up for power running boards for my 23 Tacoma TRD Off Road double cab
Mannn. Looks good brotha. Keep ‘em coming.
The hardest thing with these lights is to get the double side tape to stick to the smooth rubber protection, it’s driving me nuts trying to get this to work
Bro that was sick as hell, Loving it. I gotta do something like this for my steps. Be safe!🤙
Thanks bro...go for it bro. Anything is better than the stocks lol. You do the same! 🤙🙏
Mean da upgrade though!!! YESSAH!! 💪🏽
One of many. Still have a lot to go through.
Great idea thanks...I'll be doing this.
Glad I could help. Thanks! 🤙
Super bright
Now how to make it even brighter haha
Sorry what gauge wire did you use.

Just installed a set of Powerstep XLs on my F-150. I was very disappointed with the lights. The mounting is a bit different for the XLs with the "drop" rail, but I think something like this could be made to work under them. I'm definitely going to try!
It's my first time doing this but you always can improve from my version. Try it out man. Thanks
@@itsanubruh6492 Since the light mounting was a bit different on the Powerstep XL, I found some very thin, LED COB (chip on board) lights, about 8 inches long for each of them mounting in a rigid housing (IP67 rated). Was able to use the original wiring and the original mounting locations for the PowerStep XL lights. It's ten times more bright than the OEM lights. Thanks for the idea!
Comin out killa !!👌🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Slowly but surely🤙🤙🤙
I was impressed until you introduced the electrical tape, thats lame. Duck Tape even, with a skim of Silicone over top might have been a good idea, in order to protect the wiring. Electrical tape is good for nothing, in most cases, sure don't like Heat or Cold. I'll follow the rest of your tips ...Thanks for the effort.
I always use conduit and I have the tape that the factory uses. Those 2 combined protect the wiring from rocks and other road debris.
Yea, you sure would not want to use electrical tape for an electrical connection.
About to do this on my 2014 Denali LML, just waiting on Amazon Shipment
Let's get it bro! Night and day difference. 👍
Awesome. Any time thought about adding a ledstrip in a black profile with epoxy?
Not sure what you're trying to say here. Lol
You just got a new subscriber from this video bro, lol i like it🔥
Thanks my brotha. I appreciate it man. Glad I could put a video out for your viewing pleasure.
I freaking love it bro !
Sorry for the late reply but I appreciate bro. Glad I could entertain you.
You need neon led strips they are way better for harsh elements and they put out a totally even light even if you can visually see the led strip it just glows from end to end like a light saber.
How do I wire in the leads to my 2017 GMC Sierra DENALI crew cab with the power board steps
Sorry for the late reply but I cut the oem led from amp research and spliced power and ground to both ends of the led strip i used.
these lights supouse to come with the running boards !!
Exactly 💯. Literally night and day difference.
Great job awesome
Late reply but thank you brotha.
I did this but my led's kinda slightly go dim when opening door, then illuminate bright I don't know how to fix this.
Try checking connections and power drain.
Sweet!
Thanks bro! Need to show an update video soon.
Why do they dim after they first light up?
It's the camera focusing in. It actually gets brighter after you open the door...especially in person.
Who gives a fk bout cvid
When we have AMPs Power Boards 👍👍
What’s up brotha! First off love the videos lol. Also you need a working bench haha.
Ayeee killah...mahalos bruh I've been slacking with uploads. Just tryna get settled into the new casa. Hahaha working on it bulleh.
Nice truck. I have the same power steps, how high is that BDS lift?
Thanks bro! It's an 8" long arm lift. I have another video of me converting it to an 8"
Awesome dude. Hey what kind of tires are you running?

How/where did you splice them into the power for the steps?
Basically into the oem amp step led wires. There's only power and ground wires.
This looks awesome. I was doing something similar but I got some led strips that are pre wired on one side each. I am having trouble getting them to power on using the amp light harness. I still have one original amp light on each front end, and they still stay on. I am bad with electronic stuff. Do you think that I would have to solder new wires on the wireless end to have both ends connected to the amp harnesses? Sorry for the random question, you just seem to know what you are doing. I was thinking maybe if I unconnected the left over amp lights that are still connected it might help but I wanted a more qualified opinion before I started undoing stuff without a real plan.
Sorry for the very late reply. Hope you figured it out but I used a volt meter to test the strip and any power connection before I solder. Just make sure the power from the oem amp steps are giving power and then just solder power to power wire to the led strip that you provided. Lmk if that helps.
@@itsanubruh6492 Oh its all good, I appreciate it. I ended up rechecking it and just shrink clamped it to the rear lights and it somehow has worked so far (knock on wood). Thanks baw.
Can change the color in the existing system
No this system is not rgb. You can use them and the same system to upgrade tho.
Was the 5 meters long enough for driver and passenger side or should I buy another set of those 5 meters strip lights ?
Yes it will be enough for your truck.
I have talked to amp research and they said anything over 2 watts can burn up the module
Mines been working great! If it does go out then a simple fix RnR.
@@itsanubruh6492 still working well? Just put mine on today after your video brotha!!
@@johnbruni4857 the same as when I first installed them. Nothing wrong and still going strong. Glad to hear you did yours brotha. It's so much better right?
@@itsanubruh6492 dude so much better. I tried various rock lights and this was not only the easiest but the brightest and cheapest. Thanks again for posting!!
@@johnbruni4857 glad I could help another fellow bro. Rock lights are good but light output wasn't enough for me.
Looks good but would have looked better with Amber lights.
To each his own. I have white leds around my truck and it would be match in my build. But if you had oem embers than for sure. Thanks man
Amber lights are for tow trucks and wreckers, they look horrible on a regular pick-up.
If your gonna use silicone to attach the double sided tape to the light strip, just do away with the double sided tape and silicone the strip directly to the truck and just use tape to hold it until it dries. Silicone is great for mounting objects because of its strength and bonding abilities. If I attach anything to a dash I use silicone instead of drilling holes to use screws. Need to clean that wiring up tho. Get some expandable loom off amazon and some shrink tube to make it look legit. Then get some black zip tie mounts and silicone them to body or frame and zip tie the wiring up and out the way.
Man what state are you in? You doing installs? LOL
In the middle of the pacific ocean bro. Ill help out lol.
Bruh... Do these actually glow White instead of violet
Pure white my bro.
@@itsanubruh6492 they only look violet on my running board
If you're talking bout the oem ones then yes they're trash.
Cheeeee! 🤙🏽
Sorry but that looks like garbage, big fail with the electric tape everywhere and holding the wires -20 out of 10
Yeah no lose your minds haha not worth it! 😝🤪
