Cab lights
Ok so long delay on the cab lights. I went with the dodge ones to begin with because I thought they looked a little better. (Recon). Called recon first they said these work on the 15 took it to two shops they said no way. Im no expert but I also lined em up on the roof and dont see it possible. So 3 on 1 but who knows i may still be wrong. Slant at the front of the roof is too steep they wont sit flush. The ridge that are on the roof if u move em up some one of them is centered so the light cant go there. So needless to say i ordered the ford ones and ill let u know how it goes.

I used a Harbor Freight kit on my 2015 F-150 - $11 if I remember correctly. It was surprisingly good quality and installation is fairly easy.
Installation involves:
- Removing your A pillar plastics (2 bolts each by the handles)
- Popping out your overhead console (gently pry it off)
- Removing your sun visors (two bolts each where they touch the headliner)
- Releasing the now detached front end of the headliner
- Drilling three holes per marker light (one mount, one ground, one hole for your power wire)
- Beading around each hole with silicone to prevent leaks
- Installing a relay triggered by the source of your choice (headlights, running lights, etc)
- Running a single power wire from the relay up your A pillar and to the lights
- Reassembling everything
Overall the install will take 1-2 hours depending on how patient/precise you want to be. The hardest part will be lining up your lights. I'd strongly recommend covering the drill space with painter's tape to prevent slippage or chips in the paint while you drill. The whole project cost maybe $25 and it was definitely worth it. This is a project that requires you to be patient. There's no turning back once you start drilling holes in your roof. The amount of effort you put into the install directly influences the quality of the finished product.
