Wonder if the 2008 E series head light would fit you do not see the amber light as bad?

Not that the F-series was all that bad, but that E-series setup makes it look a lot better

That is a whole lot better. I don't know why Ford designed the lights like this.. compared to my 2006 it makes me think Ford couldn't come up with any other ideas for making the front end look different so they just flipped the lights upside down and streched them.

Sure would be hard to do a "cab-off" repair on that puppy.

Looks like a grill swapping opportunity to me. Maybe the dashboard will be interchagable too and folks can get rid of the over badged SUPER DUTY labeling on the 08's.

Still ugly. I'm really hating this new style front-end Ford is using. Those goofy headlights and grill are killing me.

The reason the headlights are on the bottom is, headlights up high blind people, Headlights down low do not blind people as much, At least this is what I have read from FORD. I like the 08 and want one, it will be awhile like 4 years from now. I have a 98 F-150 with 104 thousand. I hope this helped out.

its an easy button...DUH!!!!...no seriously if i remember correctly the superduties had it on the 08's also (over by where the headight switch is)...im going to take a stab in the dark and say its an emergency shut off??? maybe...sort of like on the tv show LOST...they didnt press the numbers in , in time so they have to turn the fail safe key...maybe its something like that so there isnt another electromagnetic anomoly...hahaha, if you ont watch the show you have no clue what the hell im talking about!!

damn, i gotta say that van looks pretty cool! those headlights are a good bit better than the truck ones. they APPEAR to be the same(size/shape), but i guess we'll have to wait for someone to be the guinea pig.
