i've got a 01 f350 and the little lense that goes over the light in the door has been missing since i bought it. i searched every local junkyard and cant find one. i dont even want to know what the dealership would want for one. does anyone know where to get one? i know it probably sounds like a stupid thing to look for but little things bother me i guess
The part number for the red/clear lenses is 1C3Z13731AA but there was a recent thread where the OP found that they were being discontinued. If memory serves, Ed was able to find one somewhere.
If you go to Ed's site and search for the part number I posted above it says this:
"Part number 1C3Z13731AA was superseded by part number F81Z2523820AA."
and the new part number I believe is the solid red one.
I stopped by my local dealer and they have them for about $11 each. Not bad, but I am really tight. I'll probably end up getting them, but I will check the wrecking yards before I break down.

No offense, but you drive a V10 and are worried about $11 for a lense? Sheesh, how much will you spend in fuel driving around to junk yards looking to save $5? If you're that tight that $11 will cause a problem for you, you should be driving a kia, not a super duty...
and also does anyone know if the new emblems like off of and 05 will fit on mine?
As far as I know, yes.
The "Powerstroke" badge on the door is just adhesive (no guide pins). I don't remember what post I read it on, but somebody has changes all of their badging to the nicer chrome '05-'07 set and I believe they said that all the guide pins matched. Even if it doesn't, you can clip the pins.
It's also on my list of "would like to"...which follows my even longer list of "need to"...

ha i know what you mean. i've got about a 500 dollar list of need to do, then i've got my "when i win the lottery or land a really good job list" of want to do stuff. but i drove by a local junkyard the other day and they had 3 or 4 of the newer wrecked super duties. im probably going to do that sometime this week and i will post pics of how it looks. as for the lense i guess i will keep looking untill i finally just break down and go to the dealership

No offense taken. I actually drive my Suzuki Sidekick for anything but hauling, which is what the SD is for.
I look at picking through wrecking yards as a good time. If I can find two lenses for a total of $10, I have saved $12 over buying new. Subtract the cost of gas (maybe $5) and that means I get paid $7 to dig through wrecking yards. I like getting paid to have fun. Besides, that is two gallons of gas I can put in the SD!!
I got mine from Ed, quick and easy, UPS brought it right to my front door. Time and fuel involved in hunting them outweighs "just gettin it done". It was driving me crazy having a hole where the lense was supposed to be !!!!
