The plastic part of the lens where most of the light comes through is actually much thicker then the rest of the plastic so i simply let the led's rest on it. Im very OCD so it took a few tries to get it to sit perfect but like i said when i was out tailgating for a few hours and had a few beers i forgot the interior lights had been on the whole time. When i finally realized it and closed the doors i was expecting to see burn marks there was NOTHING!!

3. I did try one other mounting method you may or may not like. I took the chrome buckets and flipped them and placed the LED's inside so that the light was only shinning through the very small holes normally at the top where the hole for the stock bulbs is. It provided a more directional beam of light and illuminates mostly the front instead of a flood light that spreads around the truck.

Hope this helps or is at least a starting point bud.

I understand what your saying about flipping the foil , butI do like the flood light,just not all the time,.I;; be looking for a dimmerswitch. Just a small **** mounted next to the light

Here's a little humor

Now we all have our duh moments(I have a lot more then mostpeople )I installed Jons kit and when I did the cargo and third brake light I couldn'tget the brake light to work,even with the stock bulb.

So 3 days of searching the forums I didn't find any help.Iwas ready to take it to the dealer

then yesterday ,working on the beach in 50mph winds,it hitme,,,you dumb ***** .

To check the brake light I was using the emergency brake

Puddles.....Tried heating the lense but no dice getting it off....used dremel around the lowerlip of the lens and coaxed it off slowly....installed provided festoon-typelamps....and sealed lenses back on housing....AMAZING improvement over factory

Vanity.....got to the lamp housing easily but found coaxing the bulbs out was impossible without cutting the 1/2 surround plastic "flap", which allowed me to put a pliers with vacuum hose tips to remove the bulb. Left the factory reflectors out but found the panels failed to mount steadily the way I wanted them to.....so I kinda wedged them in slightly facing the seats and used a little scotch tape to keep them in place. You cannot see the tape through the lens once you put it back on and really maximizes the aiming of the led array. Oh yeh,when you remove the light/mirror assy from the visor, keep it closed and just kinda pry the lamp assy loose and work with it that way, cautious of the pins in the flip up door (push them back in to make sure they do not fall out) and be really tender on the wiring that goes to the switch, as it looks like they are very fragile.
Soooo pleased with the results....and so is the littlelady.....really impressive as a compliment to the Platinum LED factory interiorlighting....thanks to Jon and especially Eco-Beast for the shared directions and pictures.....

I would just second the fact that the bulbs in the vanity mirrors feel like they are impossible to get out. After going with the shatter glass all over the inside of the truck approach with the first one, I was bit more gentle the second time around and after working it, the bulb finally popped out.
