In order to connect the Light Guide LED Backup Light # BUL602CB to your truck bed light you will want a 2-wire pigtail. You can use the 2-Wire Pigtail for Optronics Backup and Utility Trailer Lights # A45CB or the Right Angle 2-Wire Pigtail for Optronics Backup and Utility Trailer Lights # A49PB. These will plug into the back of the light.
Once you have these, you will need to connect the wires to your truck. The white ground wire needs to be secured to a clean, bare-metal surface. The red wire will be the power for the light. If you have existing wires running to the back, you can connect the red wire to the power using a butt connector like the # DW05743-10. If you need to run some wire, you can use # DW02422-1 and splice it into the bed light wiring.
You may also want the PVC Grommet for 6-1/2" Oval Trailer Tail Lights # a70gb to mount these lights if you don't already have grommets.
I have attached an installation video for the lights for your reference.
