Guys Im tryin to figure out which lights I want to put on. I know Im gonna go with recon smoked, but the ones for my year model look almost clear. Im thinking about goin with the smoked for 94-97 or 03 and up. what do yall think would look best?

They are the same ones I got for my truck. Same style, they aren't clear at all.

I have the super white ones and really like them, Smoked ones are really nice in person also. You almost have to see a set in person to fully aprciate them.

Stay away from the clear one, I got recon white ones and they turned more yellow about a year later deff aren't clear anymore.

does the recon kit come with a template to install by?

haloman

Mine didn't... The body shop that installed mine did thankfully

Unfortunately, no they don't come with a template. I believe it is because they assume these are replacing current cablights, so if you don't have cablights already, you will need to obtain a template. The service manager of my local dealership happens to be a good buddy of mine, so he was able to get me one. They're not too difficult to do, just take your time and make sure to line everything up. It helps to have someone help you out as well. I have the smoked ones and they look awesome on my silver truck.

so will just about any body shop do it b/c i want them bad! i took it to the dealer bu tthey owuldn't do it b/c they didn't want to be liable for any screw-ups.....about how much would it run for a body shop to put them in?

duckhunter_1100

I imagine that the majority of bodyshops would be willing to do it. As far as cost goes, it took me and a friend just over an hour to put them on my truck, so you'd be looking at probably an hours worth of shop time. I would say around $50 would be a fair price.

haloman

It cost me $50 to get mine put in.

I will post some pictures once I get home in a few days. I forgot my stupid cable to upload pictures from my digital camera

even if you cant find a template the front support on the roof already has the holes in the right place for the lights. Wouldnt you just have to center the drill with a hole cutter bit in the hole. right? Im planning on adding some myself pretty quick so does anyone have link to a thread with some good directions for doing them?

I used this site for a reference. Don't need to pull the headliner though, can just pull it down some, makes it easier, just be careful to not bend it.
