ok here is a picture of all my lights and stuff...




I wired my cab lights in with the parking lights and added a new switch for my driving lights (the ones behind the grill)

here is a picture of the switch... race car style switch sorry about the picture being bad, i took it while driving.

i know what you mean. my girlfriend didnt want me to get them because she thinks that people with cab lights always own cows and live on farms. Lucky for me she bought me the lights for my birthday which lets me know that she doesn't mind if i do end up buying a cow =]

be careful talking about girlfriends and cows in the same sentence... That will get you in MAJOR HOT WATER if it is misinterpreted..
