I think for the F150's you need to make a bracket, some people have done this before. But you might be able to avoid this.

i got the whole process on doing this...

For the mounts you need to get some metal to make some brackets... Get either some flat strap, or some angle steel. There are two mounting screws that hold ont he bumper that you will see when the mood is open... Thats where i mounted the two vertical pieces to. You just need to bend the bottoms at an angle, and drill mounting holes. You can wither weld, or bolt the two verticles to the horizontal piece. As for the top horizontal piece, just measure between the two screws, and then add two inches to the length of that. The reason for this is to leave an inch on each side of the verticals at the top to mount the lights to. i also think its the perfect location for the lights to "sit right" behind the grille. Then on the top horizontal piece, drill in the center, and then add a small flat piece that will go up a few inches, and there is a hole you can bolt to. You will have to re-locate your temp. sensor, as this is the hole that the temp. sensor mounts on... I just used a wire tie, and mounted it to the horizontal bracket... Thats pretty much everything to it... And then paint everything black. I also recommend using some black wire loom to hide the wires... Im not sure if you have a center shifter console or not, but i don't. if you dont then i have a location where you can mount your switch. Under the cup holder there is a storage hole that is about 2"x7" or so. i just removed that, and mounted the switch in the back of it to hide the switch.
