Adhesive was easy to remove, holes lined right up, stuck on.

That's so bad***, I'm expecting mine to arrive today, but i won't be home until late, so I may not get them installed right away. I got the red to naturally go with my red truck.

The stepside is a big reason why I chose a Ford! I hope Ford brings it back one day.

Got them on, I will eventually add a toggle switch, but I ran out of time, and my friend to help isn't around.


But it looks so damn cool, thanks HubFord!

Looks great on the red truck Karphan! The first and only ones I saw in person were red ones on a while F150.

Funny, last week I brought back this thread asking about the Recon emblems on a 04+ and got no reply, this week two other members just put them on, lol.

I presume the only reason for saying 2009 to 2014 or whatever has to do with the Font, but who cares, if it fits 2004 and up, they should say it.

I'm extremely happy with the look and lights, I've replaced the oval emblem in black and red on my truck, but the last f150 badge still sits on the left of my tailgate. I've painted it black with red reflective lettering. It just looks like crap, most online notes say the back emblem of the same 2009 and up font won't work on tailgate. I'm going to keep trying.

Other than license plates and headlight/driving housing I've eliminated all chrome for the black red look.

Both these look good. I'm digging both the yellow and the red to match the paint schemes.
