Clearance lights

I remember seeing a few people post about having them installed at the dealer for about 125-150 was this at the body shop or in the mechanic shop?

Either can do it but I suspect most are done by the body shop. There are write-ups of the owner installing them himself. Search for it.

That seems a little cheap for any shop to do. I read the write ups and it looks like it takes several hours to put them in correctly.

Bruce's write up is spot on. I've done the install a few times on Fords and on my Fiat. No way I'd do the install for $125 to $150.

When I bought my truck the dealer said if you want clearance lights get a truck that already has it on. They had someone else have them add it on after purchase and I think they said it was 700.00 just to install the lights.

The quote I received from dealer where I purchased was 650, this included the lights so roughly speaking 500 for the install. I elected to do myself, Bruce's write up was fantastic, template was even better. I recall someone stating 300-350, at that price I would have dealer or body shop install

I did a series of videos on my install a few years ago when I added them to my 2011 F250. Not hard. My sayings are "Measure twice drill once" and "After your first hole, you're committed"....so get to drilling!
