You'll have to drill holes in your roof, but yes, you can do it. Recon is a great company to look for - good quality product at a reasonable price. Some trucks even have a harness you can tap into

Hespen537 how hard was it to put those lights on your lower valence? Becuz that looks badass at night!I dont have the lights on my valence like your truck has... I got a plastic XLT valence with no lights down there. But is those lights on your valence cab lights just on your valence or different lights?

IMO, only old people put cab lights or orange/red reflectors all over their vehicles. Not trying to be offensive, just voicing an observation

However, Tylus' set looks pretty darn good on his truck

haha im kind of thrown off about this part. The lights on my valence were pretty easy to drill in and wire. But if your shopping for lights, be sure your not ordering them online, unless you know how wide the light is that your buying. Your Valence gives you about an inch and a half (if that) of space. So if its too wide it'll hang over. Nothing bad, but it wont have that flush look. My advice would be hit a truck stop. A bigger one. They have some many different types at some bigger truck stops, you'll have a hard time deciding. But its safer to do it that way. =) IMO
