My truck is an 06 and these I just found out weren't available till 07. They were on my truck when I bought it (used). They are power but not power fold. They manually extend out and fold

I tapped into the parking lamp wire (brown) under the drivers sill. So when I lock/unlock the door they come on. Whenever the stock lights are on, so are they.

now it really looks like the tow rig. nice job

ive seen a lot of 11th gen pictures with clearance lights, but, on your truck with your mirrors it just really makes me wanna get up there with a drill.

Thanks man. Go for it, just take your time. If you decide to use the Recon set let me know, I made a template out of Lexan to get the bolt hole spacing perfect.
