Thanks - very helpful. My pickup is similar to picture below. The silver does not leave much space for a hidden black socket. I cannot fit it flush on the black area on either side of the license plate (side plate?) - the tow hooks are in the way. I am going to try installing it on the air deflector as shown near the red mark for this picture, except aiming to do it on the drivers side. If you have any pictures of a similar install from others, feel free to throw one up here. It is getting cold up north, mine is to connect with the engine block heater....so I will probably install it in the next 1-2 days.
