Picked up my truck today and it came with only one wire. There are two spots to connect it. Here is a pic of it with the part number

The 2 mating connectors come stored in the glove box.I remember seeing or reading that two connectors come with the vehicle.
I would hope Ford supplies 2 connectors but this thread also says they only got 1 with their new truck. What's the random wire under the rear seats for? | MaverickTruckClub.com - 2022+ Ford Maverick Pickup Forum, News, InfoThe 2 mating connectors come stored in the glove box.
Or you could just pay the $150.00 and have it factory installedIs It possible to install your own 110v inverter to the 12v? If so, how big can it be? Just around 200w?
If it were me, I'd just connect a 2-pin Deutsch DT or Amphenol AT (generic, but mechanically identical) connector to the end of each included Ford e-DIY pigtail.
Deutsch DT connectors are way more common in the aftermarket, both for raw connector components and accessories that utilize the connector (such as LED off road lights).
I also wouldn't suggest soldering wires. Closed-barrel crimping is easier, faster, and is the specified method for some OEMs for repairing wiring harnesses.
I'm not talking about those red/blue/yellow insulated connectors you get from Harbor Freight or Auto Zone, but using UL-listed uninsulated barrel connectors from a reputable manufacturer like Morris Products, crimping them with Channel Lock 909 pliers or similar, and covering them with adhesive-lined shrink tubing. Guaranteed that you'll have minimal electrical resistance and that the wire will snap before the connector lets go.
I don't think it is, but it wouldn't surprise me if it shows up in parts, soon.So does the power inverter for the bed not available outside the lux package?
I ordered XLT, 4k, FX4 and I just saw that it was not included.
I found only 1 in under the seat storage bin. Asked salesman what’s that for…he not know. But after I pulled the cover marked 12VDC, and the connector, realized it the jumper to use 12 vdc somewhere, somehow. And learned about it here, on this forum. It just keeps getting better!Yes, that's what I mean. I know I saw a picture or a video of two of them in plastic bags with bare wire ends....someone said two of them come with the vehicle. All I've been able to find in a search is THIS POST. It may have been a YouTube video....can't remember.
