anyone try the dodge ram cab lights?

I was shopping around for the cheapest recon cab lights and came across the fine print on recons website that says the dodge ram cab lights also fit the fords and recon claims they look really good and they are more flush fitting, but they have no pics of this setup. Has anyone actually tried this?

I bought smoked cab light lenses for a 90's Dodge one ton I had.

I never used them and was looking at my e99 factory cab lights the other day.

They were the same and now they are on my Ford.

Would you use Timex parts on a Rolex?

Hey Moron, did you read what I said?

BTW I wouldn't drill 15 holes in my truck and install anything but an OEM part.

I used the Recon 03-07 Dodge 2500 style lights on my old '06 F-150

Very nice fit, and they never leaked while I had it

I have the Ford style 99-12 Recon lights on my F-250 now. They look just as good, and fit nicely

The Dodge ones were $74 shipped, the Ford ones were $85 shipped

You can't go wrong with either. The Ford style look better IMO on the SD.

(Dons flame retardent suit before speaking).....

I actually like the look of the Chevy single wide lamp center with the smaller outside lamps for cab lights. I plan to install something this spring/summer and haven't decided what to go with yet....

Blasphemy!!! Hey guys...traitor! Traitor! over here!

Just kidding, I did appreciate the laugh though, "Dons FR suit."

I am actually thinking of ram cab lights as well as some above. They just look slightly better in my opinion. Also, they are lower profile which will get me better mileage right?? That's what I'll tell em at least..

Ewww , really, I always hated the single middle light on the chevy. Please don`t do that to your Ford. Thats one option my truck must have. Its not a truck without them..
