Mine needs replaced as well so I have made some phone calls. I have found numerous ones at auto wreckers around town, just havent gone out to get one yet.

Go to your local scrap yard. I just got one for my supercrew. Depending on the workers when you ask if they have one they should go look and see if they have one. They told me they didn't even tho they had my exact same truck sitting out front. Luckily my boss knows the owner and went and got it for me.

Not sure where to get those, yea salvage yard probably from the sounds of it. I keep losing those damn light covers in the doors. Just the lenses. I guess just slamming the doors does it most likely. I found new ones on eBay once, -replaced the whole deal on both doors. Well, the lenses are gone again and it's on the "To Do" list.

Oh really lol. I guess I'm not the only one. Well, those door lights never seem to burn out, so next time I'll use some of that Permatex plastic epoxy on them. I have to do that right off tho. Unlike you, I've never found mine just laying somewhere. Wait a minute! I think I have in the driveway. Crap, I bet I thru it out, not knowing what it was at the time.
