I ordered the smoked ones, the lights bulbs are hyper white. Easy to install, I just changed out the lenses.

Another mod--removed the bumper pad and lower valance and had them painted to match. I didn't have them sanded smooth before, but it turned out great. I also removed my fender flares.

Will you run yellow bulbs in them??


Not sure what the local laws are about this?

S W E E T ! ! !



Yeah, you would have to run yellow bulbs/LEDs in there to be compliant with <span style="text-decoration: underline;">most</span> laws.

Have you looked to see if Silver Tec bulbs are available for the
clearance lights? Those are the ones that are Orange when they
are on, but silver when they are off. . .



Dennis

I ordered the lights will post a report when i get them. Another trick I found is to spray the yellow bulbs with silver paint. Worked great on my vette. The left has been done.

I didn't notice when I looked at them the first time, but they are
pretty expensive. Did you just use regular old Silver Spray paint
to do them. Might be a cheap way for someone to try the Silver
Tecs without the Silver tec price.



Thanks,

Dennis

Silver engine paint(high temp) from Wal-mart The lights in the vette have been done for about 2yrs now without a problem.

Do you have any shots of them on at dusk?



Thanks,

Dennis

No pics at dusk, the brightness didn't change.

Sorry, I guess I meant do you have any with the lights on. . .



Thanks,

Dennis

Thats the baddest dually I have seen in a while....Awesome Clear Cabs. I am glad you went out and got them...Good luck with that bad bitch....

does anyone know if the wiring for the lights in under the headliner??? I really want to put them on my truck but I dont know if I have to run wires etc. I know i have to drill holes, not a big deal to me but I was thinking if i could get these clear lights off ebay would i be able to install them without too much work??? thanks -Jeff

I dont think so Jeff. You probably will have to wire them seperatley.





Go for it..

Just returned from SEMA in Vegas. Thought you guys would like to see some pics of show vehicles with clear cab lights installed.

Those are some badass wheels, what are they?

Hey great pics. Very cool. As far as the wheels, I think they are alcoa old style 22.5's. Atleast thats what it look like from the pic.

I wrote a DIY article on installing cab lights. It should be in the DIY section of this forum. Not very difficult at all. No the wires are not under the headliner. You have to run along front of headliner and down PS pillar to fuse box. Took me about 3 hours and I'm slow. Just want to make sure I got the lights aligned correctly before drilling.


BTW, I bought the Hi-Five cab light kit for $68 shipped which is identical to OEM lights. The clear lights appear to be as well.
