Default Installed my new badges yesterday and fixed my HIDs

What do you think?




I also had the time to relay my headlights so my HID's work properly... If anyone needs help with this, let me know. Its great to use the "auto" lights feature again on my truck...

They are 1 piece badges -
OEM was like 70 bux for the set, but i found these for $35 for all three from a buddy's speedshop.
They are aftermarket, but fit perfectly and look the same.

Are the holes the same for the 2004-08 as the 09+, and was removing the old emblems as easy as just popping them off? I've got a project I want to try with some new style emblems.

I'm not sure about the holes for the new trucks, but I will tell you the old badges came off my truck with some fishing line and very little effort. It took a little time to clean all the tape residue off from the old badges, but thats it.

Are the oem ones just stuck on or are they on pins?

OEM is on with doublesided tape, but there are two pins that go in a hole - they dont clip or anything.
