Great Looking Truck!

A few questions.

1. Where did you purchase your speed grille?
2. The steering wheel looks like the leather wrapped Ford OEM. Did you install it yourself? If so, was it difficult?
3. The lights look awesome. I was curious as to where you bought them. I have been patiently waiting for the best deal. Fordpartsonline.com just raised their prices for the headlights to $280 for the pair.

Thanks
Dennis

The leather steering wheel came with the sport package.

I got the lights from http://fordpartsonline.com The cost was $84.00 for the headlights $40.00 for the corners and 30.09 for the tails each. Ask for
Gary he should help you with the prices

I Just found out that fordpartsonline are selling the lights for double the price.

at the orignal price. 1800-256-7933
$95.41 Heads $48.62 Corners & 34.10 Tails EA.

Robin-
Does the Speed Grille fit over the factory honeycomb grille or require the removal of the factory grille?

Very Nice!!!
I have a speed grille on order as well, very classy looking (i thought). Those rear lights are sweet too.

Nice job and great looking ride!

Robin, looking good!!!

I just spoke to my local dealership, they quoted me a price of 160.00 EACH for the tail lights....amazing
www.oemfordparts.com still is selling them for the price you stated, 34.10 each . Needless to say, I went ahead and placed an order while the getting is good! The dealerships must be doing some price gouging or something!
