I think Recon makes a good one. I have the Plasmaglow, and I had to send it back for defects 4 times. I wish I would have spent the extra for the Recon. Check out http://www.gorecon.com or http://www.stylintrucks.com. They might be a little bit more than $60. Not sure how much they cost since I got mine.

I have a Plasmaglow Fire and Ice LED bar from Autoanything.com...about $70 bucks and just uses double sided tape...pictures in my gallery or at www.oznium.com/gallery and then just look under username 02BlueStang

you have to splice the reverse light but its simple

Got mine from modbargains.com

I've had my 60" Plasmaglow Fire & Ice for over 2 years now with absolutely no problems. Paid around $70 (few years back) but have had zero problems with it.

i didn't notice yours but yup sticks out too

and I know what you mean! I wish they would of came PTM from the factory that way the tailgate would flow alot better

it's wierd how on the 97-03 f150s the PTM door handles and Mirror Caps were standard on everything (except for the XLs) but they couldn't even PTM the tailgate handle!!
