The Rampage SuperBrite LED Tailgate Light Bar - Stop, Tail, Turn, Reverse - 4-Pole Flat - 49" Long # RA960137 will use the functions from both the right and left side of the truck. I recommend using the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118379 which will allow you to simply connect the light bar without any splicing required.
If you want to hardwire the light bar, you will want to double check with a circuit tester like # PTW2993 but I believe the white with black tracer is your ground, the red with black tracer is the running lights, the green wire with white tracer is the turn signal. I haven't tested this because I don't have your particular vehicle available to test. This looks correct based on my research, but I definitely recommend confirming with a circuit tester before splicing into your wires. If you go this route, I recommend using connectors like # DW05744-5.
