Default Side Marker lights???

Ok, Under the emblems on the fenders there is holes for a side marker light,, does anybody have pics of a truck with those installed?

Is that for some other markets?

Anybody have the story on those holes?

Thats what she said.

BUt seriously, they are pin locations so that the emblems can all go on in the same place on every fender.

Yes two small holes and a big hole...

Small holes are for locator pins and the big hole is for a light harness. This is not a question.

I know these were made for european marker lights, I just have never seen any.

Thanks for this info.

What I have done is use a Dremmel tool to carefully drill a very small hole along the bottom of the lens to allow the water to drain. Another option is if you have clear silicone you can squirt some around the outside of the lens. This will prevent water from getting in. However, if there is already water in the lens you will have to drain the water first. To drain the water use a ratchet wrench and unscrew the nut that holds the lens to the bumper.

Did you ever add the side markers? I have a 2011 f150 screw and I would like to add the side markers too. I want to use two smoked cab roof lights. Do u have any pics and dimensions of the exsisting holes under the emblems? I wish they were just stickers, I'd like a emblemless truck honestly but lights would be cool too. I guess the tailgate f150 emblem has posts too? Wonder how much it would cost to have a body shop cover and paint post holes all around.

No, I have never even found a Picture of what they would even look like.....

I did look at some in england and they dont have the lights. The F150 sold there are not even right hand drive. So they dont have much done to them.

I need to see some that are sold else where in Europe.
