Look at the bold lines of the truck, and the color combinations. IMO #2 looks best, then #1. #3 makes it look like Euro trash...way to busy for elegant Ford lines.

I really like 1, but 3 looks very nice. I would have to see some installed with the black trim painted or chromed to match the rest of the truck. If you are going with a black grill on a black truck 3 would look perfect.

Thumbs up Thanks for the input...

Thanks Travis, those pictures really give an idea what the lights look like on the truck.I knew there was a reason I voted for you in the championships, LOL

Honestly, I only posted number 3 as it is a custom option, and while I think it would work pretty well with HID's inside the projector, I dont really care for the look. Kind of like the newer Super Dutys, and I am not a real fan of that restyling either.

DIYit, thanks for the input on the fitment issues on the number 1's. I was wondering about that. Looks like I will probably be going with the number 2's

I don't like any of them. I think just a clear lense looks best.

I dont understand why people say that.. Ive taken mine off maybe 6 times now. The hardest part is getting behind the battery and headlight. Then its a piece of cake. 2 nuts and 2 screws for each headlight.

Is the top one smoke/smoke or smoke/clear on the headlight? Kind of hard to tell exactly, and the ones you are looking at are the number 1s I originally posted with the LEDs? And as for the last pic, Dayum, can you say chain lightning? LOL

The little metal clips on each threaded stud that have to be popped off and pulled at the same time is no treat. Especially when there is some rust to deal with. I had to replace the bottom headlight adjuster on both lights, because the new ones had a full round stud, while the originals were half round. That, and the bottom bolt on both snapped off and there is NO room to get in there and cut them off....

Yes the top one is the smoked versions of #2 you posted.

Yes #1s but the black versions.

It was Lightning fest 7(?) I think.
