I have non LED, these lights aren't awesomely bright, they are good enough to see stuff in the bed with no box, but really, a flashlight will do you more justice

They are wired through the dimmer. Mine are the factory, turn the know till the interior lights come on, that makes it come on in the bed.

Your truck doesn't have the factory wiring for cargo lights (and neither does mine.), so you're gonna have to do your own wiring any way. If you don't like the fact that it comes on with the dome light, why not set it up on a separate switch hidden somewhere around the dash or in the floor console thing?

I will try to get one tonight, its hard to get a good picture of the light out put, but I have a BuggMan Modded LED one, I will try to get a picture tonight. I am also one of these days going to wire it to where I can turn the cargos on without the dome coming on...I just have to figure out the wires!

Mine too, I am adding one for the fogs, that are built-into my headlights this week so I can finally mount the switch its just been hanging out for a bit. I should see if there is a way to tap into the cargo lights without going the the Cargo/3rd BL like by the dimmer toggle. Hrrmmm
