ok so im installing black tinted cab lights on my truck it doesnt have any from the factory. if anyone with them on there truck could give me some measurements of how much set back from the front glass and the distance between each cab light i know the 3 inners are close together and the outer 2 of more ofset.. if anyone could do this for me that be GREAT!!!!! if not anyone know where i could find the specs ??????

 

you should have gotten a template of where to drill in the kit.

I have them but it's a bit dark to get good measuremants

 

yea i should have when i bought the set it said everything to insalled on your truck it came with he lights and screws... i fugured it would come with the harness and templete and all that jazz but nope just lights and screws...i called our dodge store and he said he will see what he can do which means hes gonna forget about it and i wont ever hear from him

 

If you ordered the Recon black lights like I did then I recommend you order the Mopar stock clearance lights.

Why?? Because it comes with a wiring harness and a template that you lay on your roofso you drill the holes exactly. Then install your black tinted lights. Yeah it is an extra $75 bucks for the Mopar kit, but you dont have to worry about drillingholes in your $50K in the wrong spot. If you drill in the wrong spot how much will that cost to correct? More than the price of the Mopar kit, I can promise you that.

The Recon lights dont come with any except the lights. They assume you already have stock clearance lights installed and are toswap them out.

As far as the Mopar kit, I was very impressed with the very clear instructions, the mounting template, and the wiring kit. It definately made the installation very easy.

Just my two cents.........

 

how about this you send me the templete you used!!!!!! hahah that would only work in a perfect world im gonna wait till the dodge store gets back to me or il just call them again maybe the have a templete i can steal!

 

I've heard, but I don't know how true it is, that there are marks for where the lights go up under the headliner. When you take the headliner down apparently there's an inner roof and an outer roof. The holes are in the inner roof skin. This would be the roof that grab handles, compass, ect are screwed to.

Just repeating what I've heard.

 

Can't help ya, 2nd gen.

 

You can have my template if you want it. It's got hole drilled through it but you could still use it.

 

Can ya feel the love?

 

When I pulled my headliner down, I did not observe any marks. Even if there were marksI would still be a little leary about drilling holes from the inside.
