yep, those came stock on several f150 models, it might need brackets it might not...
but pretty sure all you have to do is screw it in...
the computer can be wired up as well... i just have to decode the wiring schematic and get it going.

ford already has them built in... do some simple searching other forums and you'll see.
our trucks are already wired for everything you just have to tap into them with the wiring schematic.
