What is the cost to have this done??

Do the lights come-on when you turn on the parking lights?

Who here in Arizona can do those WITHOUT BUTCHERING them and causing leaks?

The cost for the lights themselves is $75. I'm not sure how much it would cost to have them done as this was part of my deal when purchasing the truck. It sounds like it is really easy to do, I wish I would have done mine myself. However, I was hesitant about drilling on my truck. I'm sure you feel the same. The lights come on when the parking lights are on. Hope this helps.

The lights were aftermarket but they are the same shape/size as the DOM lights. Good idea, I'll take a picture of the lights on tonight. I think you'll like.

Got my cab lights put on aftermarket also but told them to wire them in conjunction with the fog lights so they dont automatically come on when I turn my lights on. Just another alternative....sometimes you DONT want to be recognized coming down the road...

Leaking

Well, as with everyone else it seems, I washed my truck and discovered a leaking cab light. So I went and got some RTV and siliconed in the hole, around the hole, on the screws, underneath the screw heads, and then on top of the screw heads after torquing the screws down. Do you guys think this will solve my problems???

Are they the 2006 cab lights or older?

They redesigned the 06 lights. I think RTV would do the job. As long as both surfaces are clean, the RTV should seal it.
