If you wanted a "real truck" you should have bought one.

While you are at it put some of those lights underneath the truck too.
I agree, Sean. It's too bad other people have no respect for others' opinions. Oh well, somebody has to buy the ecoboost.

I received my Recon cab lights today. I bought the ones that they show as repalcements/add-ons for the Dodge. I liked them because they are lower profile than the ones that they have for the Fords.

Heavy rains for the next few days, so this may have to wait to get installed. The desctructions that came with the kit are very detailed, for the Dodge though. How to lower the headliner, where wires are, ... I asked if there are similar ones for a Ford. Our headliner looks like there is velcro, screws, some clips, ...

i know this is going to be a stupid question...but...... what is the real reason 250's and 350's etc come with them? is it b/c of height...such as the Raptor Led's in the grille are b/c of width?

I know they look good on the 04-08 F150s. Looking forward to the install Sean.
TimelessR1- They're usually options on the 250/350s and standard on the duallys, it's all because of width.

Will the Sirius antenna be in the way of an even install?

Sadly, yes. Step 1 will be to lay them out and get around that 'zit', both on top and hopefully, not drill through any cables underneath. I think I am going to paint that with Krylon plastic paint eventually, but yah, bad placement for sure.

You're a jackwagon. Shut the efff up if you don't have anything contructive to say.

One of the front runners in Truck of the year has them and they look pretty cool. Real truck, what an *****.
