Left plug works reverse, center is for beeper ! I didn't get to mine, I got it from a guy who wired the light to the left plug but didn't run it thru a relay, that will leave the light on very dim even after turning the key off for a minute or so - run power to a relay from the left plug, don't just plug light in there - look online and see the kit !

-- if you wire the relay yourself, you can buy the connector plugs, get a relay with a diode built in to protect your computer and other electronics from any damage from back feeding power - Good Luck, do it right the first time ✌🏻

Two wire plug at end of left frame rail is for the back up light (of course light instructions from lighted bumper co said center plug) so I get that..and end of left rail has a actual plug for the back up light that come on when you put in reverse,
and bosch std relay goes between plug and bumper light and I get that. Question is, center plug where do you buy the beeper and assume you split the wires..coming out of left and center plugs. Am I close..
