I was setting mine up, got all the way through it then it just froze up and said an error had occurring or something and it kept doing that when I was trying to log in.

Install was pretty easy. It's just kinda scary drilling through your roof. Measure twice drill once.

I've had the clear Recon lenses for about four years. Other than yellowing just a bit, there have been no problems with them.

OEM-like fit and quality.

So.. my only question, did you do the 1/4 holes, or did you drill just the right size for the screws that came with it??

I screwed the holes for the size of the screw. I think the 1/4" holes would be for if you are installing factory Ford lights because they have studs and then a nut.

Congrats Adam. Looking forward to pictures. I've always wondered what the smoked lenses look like on a grey truck.

They look awesome Ryan. They are the same color as my truck pretty much. I still can't figure out my picture issue.

Hey Adam, I just tried to put your pics from the e-mail you sent me to my documents, they went there. Then I tried to upload them in my gallery and they didn't go, I went thru the resizing feature also and got just the red X in my gallery. I,m not comp. savy so that doesn't help to much either, i'll keep trying..
