    Only if you get the option that adds them. Cargo bed led lights or something like that. Available in SET, don't know about other regions.

    My truck didn't come with them. It was on my wishlist since I had my 2nd gen.
    I purchased from those eBay links

    Start disassembling. :) Figure out where the wires behind it lead to.
    At least it's not a partially installed car alarm. o_O

    Time for a trip to the dealer then. Something's not hooked up right. That's a port or dealer install item.

    Left side of the steering wheel there's a switch for your cargo light. Turn it on.

    That should be under warranty. Take it back to your dealer. Could also be something like a blown fuse on those lights.

    Like @metalpeddler88 said, try tracing wires. Its sort of hard to see up inside the fender though, so if you can't find the wires you might be able to see through a hole if you take a tail light off. They should be in a run of the mill wire loom.

    I'm assuming after install everything was a-okay but they probably used some garbage wire taps that they didn't do right.

    On a new truck? Forget that, make the dealer fix it.

    If you already have free oil changes. Hit them up for free detailing.

    Limited wheels, extra rope hooks in bed.
    Has anybody put outdoor solar powered led lights in their bed?....No wires

    I'd like some that have a switch instead of automatically coming on.

    If it was dealer/port installed on your new rig I would make them fix it. Perhaps call the dealer first to find out what should cause them to turn on.

    On the second gen it's tied to the dome lights if installed per the OEM instructions. I'm not sure if the third gens have this wired the same way.
