Post it if you do it!
Go to wrecking yard buy lite of your choice the lites have built in mercury switch to turn them on or off by the angel of the hood [open tiltedup turns on] all you hafe to do is wire it to batt. power note your truck probably is alreay wired if you get a lite from it a ford it will plug right in and there will already be a hole for the mount screw.Bubbabud F150 Ecuboost
