Looks pretty damn good. Can you give some details on where you got the lights and switch. Good job!

I would get the upfitter switches from a raptor to make it look factory. Not digging the amber lights but the blue is unique.

well the rapto switch look nice but to buy everthing needed woould be way over priced and then two buttons that wouldn't do anything and i like my storage tray

wireing wasn't hard if you know the basics and have a few tools...running the wires were the hardest part

i wanted the blue light to look like the ford kit at half the price

Thumbs up

Looks great!

And FYI, if you want the same type of switches as in the Raptor, just get them from a SuperDuty, they've had the same exact switches since 2005 I believe. There are 2 differnt size backplates for the different year SuperDuty's, 2005-2007, 2008-2010. I think that's correct, don't really follow the SD, but whatever the last 2 models were, those are the two choices when ordering.

I actually believe his switches are even nicer, in the fact they fit perfectly in that tiny useless space, completely out of the way, and look like a factory switch, not just screwed in or taped up somewhere. (That's why I was pissed when Ford didn't offer Upfitter Switches as an option on the 2009 F-150, makes no sense as they would be so easy to install in the little cubby opposite the TBC switch. And still not an option in 2010.).

Great job! Like the amber's, very cool! Do they come on with your running lights? Or do you control them with one of the switches?

Did you take any pics of installation? Would be curious how you installed the switches, LED's, and wired them up of course being the most important.
