Thanks

Well, you could always buy a new bumper if you want a factory look or you could mount them in the gap on the lower bumper.

I like the bull bar like yours, looks 10x better.

I think they are better than the 2006, but not as good as the 2004-2005.

I can see much farther to the sides. Actually, I can drive at night fine with only the fogs on. They don't reach out too far -not really driving lights, but the really flood the road in front on out in the ditches.

I think you should add a bull bar or brush guard and mount some nice lights on that. But I guess it all depends what type of appearance you are looking for your truck.

BV,
Those lights look pretty good. Do you have any install pictures? How and where did you mount the switch? Also, they look as though they are fitting just inside the lower grille gap, any chance they fit in front of it instead---for those with an aftermarket lower grill replacement?
