Tailgate Light Bar that fits?

[Dr. Ron]

I purchased a LivTee Car Tailgate Light Bar from Amazon that was supposed to be a perfect fit for my 2023 Lariat. However, when I began to install it, it was about 4 inches too long, and because of its design, it was impossible to cut it. Does anyone know where to get a tailgate light bar to fit my 2023 Lariat?

A 48" light bar should fit or you can use something like the Putco split bar that I used so I could stay clear of the spare tire access hole.

Thank you. I had not thought of the spare tire hole. The one I had would have compromised that.

I have this one from Nilight off amazon. Fits perfect. I think it has a white backup option also, but I did not hook that up did as the doesn't connect with the 4 flat.

Thank you, it looks good. Did you determine if it interferes with the spare tire hole?

Nope it does not it is not very thick and goes right below it.

Single row LED light bars can go below the hole. Triple row light bars can go above.

Do these light bars make the trucklet think there is a trailer plugged in?

Yes it will if you plug it into the factory trailer wire harness.
I went with the below harness that is plug and play with the taillights and gives you a 4 flat connection. I have it hooked up now and does not affect the BLIS, rear camera, or rear cross traffic alert. Very easy to hook up and required not splicing or cutting of wires.
