I have an extra set of all clear heads just because I found them again and like khaos said they're hard to come by. The headlight I have are oem. Just added the non amber reflector that I took from the eBay heads.

Little update. Added some chrome foxes in the rear and more reverse lighting.

Finally happy with her. Now for some interior stuff sometime with next year or so. Time to really enjoy the truck again

Is there a write up for what wires to splice into for the auxiliary reverse lights?
