yea i was thinking about the 62" just cause i got the 60" fire and ice light bar and i think the longer one would just look better on the side of the truck, and what r the clips if there not aluminum??? id probley just get some black model paint then and paint them with that.

The clips I got are black. Mine is the 62 inch. That should fill out your cab nicely.

The clips I got with mine were black also and bendable. I would guess some kinda bendable steel. I have had these lights for a good year + and the rust is getting worse.

There is another pic added in my new gallery and a short vid on youtube here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo3oVrI5hWs

They look great!

However, the only thing holding me back are using selftapping screws that low on the body, right behind the front tires. The thought of those holes eventually rusting out and opening up bigger scare me (especially with a Midwestern winter with road salts).

the rust on the clips you can see, I can clean them up and repaint them right now before the cold weather though. I don't have rust on the truck *knock on wood.

I like these, too - as opposed to getting the OEM mirrors with the signals in them.
What's involved with wiring them up?

Two wires spliced into your park/turn lights. I have a set that I am going to put on my SuperDuty this weekend.

Streetglow has their version but it has a white courtesy light too. kinda like puddle lamps for when the door is open and the amber for signaling but either brand is not cheap.

Streetglows look dope the white leds would be cool and no drilling to mount them but they are only 57 inch.
