Anyone know if this hole is supposed to house a light?

This pic is of my interior console, took it apart to run coax for my 2 way radio antenna. It’s probably specific for 13/14 model year Raps... anyone know what this hole is for, console light maybe?, nothing was there when I started taking everything apart. TIA!!

Where is it? Can I get from dealer and easily add? My Raps an 801a fully loaded. That giant console is pretty dark inside.

Yessir

It's for trucks that have the OEM ambient lighting, which the Raptor does not. I took the entire ambient lighting setup out of my 13 Limited so that my Raptor has it.

Oh ok. That looks nice in the Gen1, I’ve always liked it in the first two years of the Gen2. Maybe I’ll see if I can order that from my dealer and install it.

You won't like the cost of ordering it from your dealer. I'd find a wrecked Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, or Limited and just take the stuff you need from it. Most likely will be quite a bit cheaper. There's a thread on here of what you'll need. Only part you need to build is the harness from the A/C module down to the floor connector, then re-program the module with ForScan.

Thanks for the helpful info!
