Couldn't find a good write up on this so I thought I would make one
Tools you will need:
Flat head screw driver
Needle nose pliers
Tube of clear rtv silicone
Clean towel
And clean work surface

Start by removing parking lights from your truck and taking to a clean work area.

Next take your flat head screw driver and pry the clear lens away from the inside, be sure to move around and don't pry to hard in one spot until the factory silicone is loosened up or it may break the lens..if you have a heat gun it may help but I didn't use one and had the light apart in about 10-15 minutes

Keep working your way around until you get the clear lens free

Next take your screw driver and pop the orange reflector out

Now you will need your needle nose pliers, pick out the factory silicone so that the lens will fit back together tight..
Next is the silicone

Put a thick bead all the way around..

Clean up your clear lens making sure to keep all moisture and dirt out

Replace the clear lens and put a thick bead of silicone around the outside..

Let them dry, the silicone I used takes and hour to tack off and 24 hours to fully cure..

doesn't look as hard you made it seem:thefinger:

Looks are very deceiving. This is just the parking lights. The head lights are definitely more difficult.

I mean it's not terrible but it's not the easiest thing in the world
