Default Replace Head/Tail Lights w/ Raptor Lights

Has anyone on here replaced your F150 Head/Tail lights with the Raptor head/tail lights?? I was wanting to change them out on my 2013 F-150 but I didn't know if they would fit or not. If anyone has any pictures, I would appreciate it!!

The Raptor tail light and non-HID headlight housings are exactly the same as the regular lights. They just have black painted bezels inside instead of chrome. They bolt right in.

The HID version of the Raptor headlights are almost a direct swap. They bolt right in, but you'll need to get a jumper harness for the bulbs to work.

I just changed mine out and I have a 2014. Easy as pie. My only recommendation is too twist the whole connection with the bulb and wires and take them out of the housing. Then disconnect the plastic clips. I snapped some of the clips a little doing them while they were still in the housing. Just not enough room to work. I got mine from https://www.f150forum.com/members/rogel-ford-205690/ . They were only a few bucks more than on ebay. I also bought a kicker system from him. He gives good discounts here to forum members so I'd rather go with him than someone on ebay.

I can't post pictures from work, but here's a link to my build thread with before an after comparisons. Night and day in my book. Well worth every penny.

According to my opinion the Raptor tail light and non-HID headlight housings are exactly the same as the regular lights. They just have black painted bezels inside instead of chrome.

They are exactly the same besides chrome inside and black inside, but it makes a world of difference in appearance.

I think it was $6 and I didn't even ask considering the steal I got from you on the kicker system.

[MENTION=205690]Rogel Ford[/MENTION] I'm interested in replacing my head/tail lights and getting a Kicker audio system upgrade for my 2013 F-150 SuperCab. Can you PM me with more information?
