Does anyone have access to find the part numbers for cup holder ‘light ring’ in the 2021 F150’s?

I’ve been searching and have found the cup holder part numbers but don’t find anything for just the ‘light ring’ that is placed at the bottom.

Looks to be what I’m missing to put together ambient lighting together for my 22 that is coming in soon.
 
@AzzA Looks to be right. See diagram I got from a Ford Dealers Parts Department. This is from 10-12-2020 when they were starting 2021 production. As normally 2021's start being built at the end of 2020.

I don't think the ML3Z is correct here (but still could be) for the cup holder light ring, in talking with a few parts departments. But I guess we will see.

I ordered the following and will get a wiring harness from the guy on SuperDuty Forum as well.
HC3Z-14A318-C cup holder light ring
HC3Z-14A318-E wire assembly with LEDs

Sounds like a plan. Where are you ordering these from?

Just start calling Ford Parts Departments at Dealerships, the light rings are on backorder currently so you have to find one in stock somewhere.
Below are dealership part centers that have a light ring, a parts center shared with me this morning. I called and got the last one at the Joe Machens in Jefferson City, MO. Check with the others.

Here's to hoping this light ring works for us!

cool idea, how much does it set you back....I have a 401a on order and would love to add the light rings and wireless charger if not to much $$$
 
Who ever completes this mod first, please either do a picture write up or a video of the process. I’ll Venmo you money for a six pack :p
I have the parts on order, still waiting on the truck. And need the wiring harness from the Super Duty Gentlemen. Guess we’ll see how it goes once it have it all! Hoping for success here. Really wanted lighted cupholders, super bummed they removed them.

$74 for the led wire harness
$30 for light ring
$45 for wiring harness.

About $150 for all needed items shipped.

FYI, you have to have the ambient lighting in your truck factory to do this.

Not too bad, does 401a have ambient
 
I emailed that guy on Ford Super Duty forum to order the special harness he makes. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/market/1678511

He said we also need these parts:
HC3Z-14A318-E lights
ML3Z-14A318-C light ring(specific to 21+ F150)
Not too bad, does 401a have ambient
Honestly, I ordered the parts the debate with come down to which light ring is correct the ML3Z-14A318-C or the HC3Z-14A318-C if either are correct. If the one I ordered HC3Z works then great if not then I’ll sell it because they are scarce currently and get the ML3Z.

I guess I’ll find out at some point. Don’t have the parts or the truck yet.

I called around and found these at Galpin Ford in North Hills, CA. I forgot to ask if they had more in stock. Hopefully those are the right parts haha I also just received the special harness needed from the guy on the Super Duty forum. That guy is very responsive and shipped it out fast.
 
Those parts should work! If you get this done first post it up!

The Super-Duty forum gentlemen has updated his posts over there to include the F-150’s now. Check out the link in one of my earlier posts.
 
Also curious if this is possible on the 401a?
Do you have the blue led under the glove box that points towards the floor? That's what everyone is connecting to.

It does not appear that I do from what I can tell. The only ambient light source I can see in the entire truck is the one up near the sunglasses holder pointing down at the console.
