Maybe they would offer some type of discount group buy? I looked at them and would like to order a set but I'm really aprehensive about putting the holes in the roof and wiring them in. I have seen a couple of write-ups about it, but still....

Ford factory cab lights use standard 194/168 wedge type bulbs. While I can get some LED bulbs you may want to check out V-LEDs.com.

They have a pretty large selection of bulbs and colors that would work. No ties to us, I have purchased a couple sets of bulbs from them myself.

They have a set of dual-color turn signal bulbs that are white normally but blink amber, they look very cool IMO.

We're on Stull Rd off Rt. 15 near Mountaindale. I have a buddy that lives over near Keymar, Ladiesburg actually.


We intended to do more advertising locally but my partner has been pretty busy building trucks for the U.S. Army and will probably end up going back to Iraq/Kuwait.

Now this is a serious truck:

i know this thread is a little old but i had 2 questions? how are you guys installing these, on a ladder, sitting on the roof? i am only 5'5 so i have quite a ways to reach up there. also, is the windshield perfectly straight? i was thinking of making a template with autocad and printing it on a plotter. that way i couold just lay it up there and centerpunch.
