The guy I bought my canopy from mentioned he had the 3rd brake light and dome light wired through the bed. Is the bed already wired from GM or is there a special way to do this? I need 12v for a backup camera too. Just want to know before I wire it all myself and then find out there was an easier way to do it, though I am planning to send 4ga. to the rear for a winch so not the end of the world if I need to tap off of that run. Thanks!

I didn't even consider tapping the tow package leads, THANK YOU!
Yeah no problem. Thats what we are here for to help each other. There should be a constant hot with the tow wiring. Thats what i brought mine up off of. Just if your going to be pulling a lot of juice off it, you might be better to run a thicker gauge water

Awesome, good to hear about the constant hot since I want my rear view camera on all of the time. Definitely still going to run a separate 4 gauge wire for the winch power hookup. Thanks again!

Going a bit different route. I have a 09H3T. There seems to be enough room above rear diff to install a gel battery. I am also having to wire in a rear locker, but I was wondering about tying into tow package wiring and rig a solenoid so I can run trailer/ aux on a separate power source and save my vehicle battery.
Anybody else done this?

Since I have to route a switched source for locker, and could just run several lines. Just trying to keep it it clean.



Can't make it through the day? Back up, and get a run at it!
