    As I was installing a fog light kit this afternoon, I noticed this plug hanging loose behind the driver's side knee dash panel. Does anyone know what it is for?IMG_2067.HEIC.jpg

    I just watched a YouTube video about installing bed cargo lights and it looks like the plug may fit the pre-wired bed lights switch. Can anyone confirm this?

    You are correct. Cargo Lamp (Access Cab has none) switch connector.

    Since the bed lights are pre-wired and I am planning to add them as well as the switch and probably the relay, is the cargo light pre-wired too? Can I buy a third center mounted brake light with cargo light built in and will it be plug and play?

    That stuff really works like magic when needed. In literally one night.

    I noticed that after I uploaded the photos. I thought, man I should have put some lotion on my hands! By the way, I have some!
