Truck is super sick also
Just got them about a week ago took them through the sand gave it a few car washes and they still are working good as long as you get them installed the right way they should be fine. Need to get my side lights fixed but I blame that on installer error. Oh thanks for the compliment to!

A little before and after. A lot more to come though.

Do you happen to remember what the offset was on those fuel hostages? It seems they have a few options.

It took about a week for them to come in. I ordered them through a shop because I had them installed there. Just go to Recon Lighting in google and it should come up.

Mine was the same there's a part that ford makes behind the third break light that is a plug but Recon can't copy that plug so you have to wire them together. Just a few simple wires from what I remember.

Yeah i got it going. I think the oem third brake light looked like crap. I wanted this one so it blends behind the headache rack and i have everything else with LEDS. It wasnt as bright as they claimed tho. Your truck is awesome and i am anticipating the next meet in greet here in town.

Yea their products aren't always what you think they will be. I do want to see somebody do the side emblems that light up though. Thank you, hopefully everything on her will be fixed by then. I think they're going to want to do a show and shine so at least they won't be all dirty this time.
