I did the exact thing! I agree the chrome helps set the entire tailgate/bed stand out. I have the factory tow hitch, so hopefully that'll give a modicum of protection, but I'm now thinking that a strip light below the tailgate might be needed for the "destracted drivers" ........... ie...
The power to the bed shuts off automatically shuts down after 15 minutes, preventing any drainage from the bed area. I inadvertently left my bedlights on once. It saved my bacon.
Join the club! ..... Hell,
I assume we need all the
"young old farts" we can get. Old farts tend to die at a higher attrition rate!!.
Bawahaha!
Welcome!!
The power hook up in located in the driver side bed. It's a small 2x2 plate behind the cubby in the bed area. You must plug the pigtail into the cubby.
Explained in the owners manual.
Mmm try it and you'll know when is doesn't work! Actually, mine has activated a couple times. I've tied it a couple times, but I'm not gonna give a test!!! LOL
