Looks great, bert!!! I can see me doing that sometime soon, and I like where yours are mounted. I might leave the empty driving light holes as ducts for cooling my brakes.

They look really good. One of the best low cost mods you can do to the front end of these trucks IMO.

I know these are common questions but, did the lights make it run any hotter? and does the light that they produce have lines through it from the grille?

Thanks

Joe,
They look good! Get some OEM driving lights for the bumper. The after market setup uses a small toogle switch. I leave mine on all the time as driving lights. I'm afraid my grill bars are so close together they'd block the light if I did your setup.

neither, no lines , not much light loss at all really, and didnt effect the cooling system at all.
