xtremelights2003 is the vendor we bought from, and the only one selling them on ebay for right now. He hasn't put on many new auctions though lately.

^^^for the guys asking about light output, I haven't driven it yet at night.

The assembly is the same as stock, so it uses all the same bulb types/sizes.

as you can see in the pics, it is still chrome where the turn signals and headlights are, so it shouldn't impact the light reflection.

There's always the Lincoln Mark LT when it comes out. Of course expect to pay $700-1200 and some minor mods for them.

What is the part number for the chrome blinker bulbs. Are they still amber when they blink and if so how bright.
Thanks for your help!

3157, you can get in a few colors to either blink amber, or white. I got the ones that blink amber. They are bright enough, not 100% like the stock ambers, but maybe 90%.

I got mine from this auction and they've been working great for several months:

Question

So have any of you guys drove your truck at night yet, and if so have you noticed any difference in light output from the factory lights to the Black lights?

re: night

i think steve said earlier that he hadnt driven at night yet, but the bulbs are the same, and there are still the chrome reflectors as in the stock units...so i would then imagine that the output is pretty close to stock-
