    Thanks Bill! I've seen an 02 F250 with them mounted in the grill, and there's a Tacoma up here that has 4 :)crazy:) mounted on a light bar, but no other F150s yet :peace:

    The lights are pretty yellow right now, because they're that dumb halogen still... I'll have to see how they work in a snowstorm this winter. They're only about $20/cover.

    The bumper is still a long way off, I just don''t have time to tear my front end apart to build it up....

    Got my H3 bulbs coming for my ProComp retrofit also, 5000k this time :peace: Those poor 55w are outgunned by the LFs now lol

    maybe if you gut the whole honeycomb grille out and put a billet grille in there it would have enough clearance?

    ^ maybe... I need to find someone who can measure a Saleen or billet grill. I need 7" of clearance at the top. Between the grill and radiator

    Got some personalized plates installed today. I hate running a front plate, but I hate getting pulled over for it more. Its an $80 ticket that you can't fix...
