One of the FTE folks put together a website showing his install:

We've had some other members build templates from a truck at a local dealership, and use that to do their installs.
I suppose it just goes to prove that there are 100 ways to skin a cat...it just depends on which one you prefer.

No, I don't sorry. However, I do know that if you buy them from a dealer they are fairly expensive. If my memory is correct, like $155.00. I bought mine at Cabellas, Ford OEM lights and harness come as a kit, think I paid like $35.00 for the kit. It was about 2 years ago, so price may be higher now. Put them on myself, took like maybe an hour, to an hour and a half. Fairly easy job. Used the link Deluxe05 provided. Good luck.

I just called Midway Ford. A huge fleet dealer here in KC, parts/service open til 2:30 AM. (cheap plug for excellent dealer). Anyway, I was quoted a price of $137.00 for all. Don't sell in a kit, harness one price, lenses another, fixtures another etc. Installed is $336.41. shoot, just buy the kit at Cabelas. It is the original Ford part, invest an hour and do it yourself. Trust me, it is easier than you think.

Mine came with a switch yes. I didn't use it though and just connected the harness into the factory provided receptical under the kick panel. They come on when the head lights / parking lights are on. Comes with a switch because some people like to be able to blink them on / off like a semi, independent of the headlights, or I guess, just shut them down when the headlights are on, for whatever reason.
