Yep there are two layers to your roof, the bottom layer has the holes for the lights, all you have to do is drill in the center of each hole through the top layer so you can fish your wires through.

That kit looks like it only has the lights included. You will need wiring too and the truck doesn't come prewired for the clearance lights.

How do you make sure you square and center the lights up? I'd hate to go through all that work to have them off center....

Well they make templates you can buy-but i just measured mine out with a tape measure and had a few buddies stand in front of the truck and "eyeball" it....turned out perfect, looks factory.
