Recon quality fitment installation
Just installed new recon led turn signals because one of the oem units was busted when I purchased the truck about a month ago.The fit and quality were good at best maybe I was expecting to much I dont know.They are not a bad product but I expected the quality to be there since everyone rates them so highly.Just my .02 worth
Im now going to install the recon cab lights and I hope they are a quality product I hate knocking holes in my roof for a poorly made unit.
Any tips from installers that have done this before would be greatly appreciated.
Im fairly new to ford and generally only work on BMWs so I maybe over reacting a little to the new engineering.TIA

Since then I've seen a couple threads in the SD forum about poor customer service from Recon with problems. Makes me more wary now...

i love the way my recon tail lights look and work. but when i installed them i shut the tailgate super slow just to be safe. good thing i did cause the pass side was sticking out way to much and the tailgate would have craked/broke it. i had to shave off about a 1/16 of the edge to clear the tailgate.

Keep in mind if someone if someone other than FORD is selling FORD products they probably have a mark up in there for profit. You can order everything that kit has direct from a ford dealership for less. The part #s for the light heads is: 6C3Z15442A and the wire harness with overhead console is: 3C3Z17C710BA. All can be purchased from directfordparts.com for $98.56 shipped. Just pick up some 5mm washers and 5mm-8 nuts at your local hardware store.
Thanks.
