Oh I ordered the smoke and on the ebay posting it looked black but spec d only shows chrome and smoke chome. No chrome on my truck anywhere execpt the emblems and that might change too. Carefully seperated lenses at 240 degs 220 wasnt cutting it. Sanded all chrome to flat black plastic. Frame painted flat black. Lense sprayed clear so i didnt have to figure out how to mask clean circles.
It was not easy to seperate was starting to bend, long thin and it was not regular butyl rubber. I did use OEM frame to cab seal was betterthicker neoprene.
Almost done with my lighting if it stops raining I can do my Anzo switchs. Also went with the morimoto xb fogs.

Good work! I have the same smoke chrome light except I did not do any mods to it. I was a little surprised it only used two of the four factory screws.

That was one of the reasons I swaped seals. The other was they did have a cheesy one IMO...
lets see how I do up front now...
