Thanks man! It wil be getting Esky handles, and tow mirrors with LED clearance/turn signals wired in. I'm undecided about all the other colormatching though.

Really ,, !! Are you putting LEDs in some stock tow mirrors or buying ones with them in ?

I've always wanted to have running lights/LEDs in my tow mirrors , have seen threads on how to do it , just never have , and eBay has some cool factory looking mirrors with running lights .

That's one thing I actually like on the ford , is its lighted mirrors.

Trucks really gonna look good bro !

I've seen a few different aftermarket tow mirrors, factory "elephant ear" style, but with added lights. It's been a while since I was looking at them though. Some of them looked choppy, but I remember liking one of them a lot. Hopefully I can find them again.....

I plan on wiring them to my front "itty bitty" corner marker. I want them to come on with the parking lamps, and blink with the turn signal. Probably not gonna happen for a month or two, but I'll get to it eventually.

you wont have to go through that hassles of running wires to your side marker, i added the elephant ears to my 02, and i just ran the wires to the bcm wires that control the signal, and just grounded it in the door, and voila signal mirrors on a 99-02.....

Found a guy in Tennessee who still had his brand new, unused factory winter front kit (grille & bumper covers), and we made a deal. Don't really need the bumper cover here, not THAT cold where I live, but the grille cover is really going to help the engine heat up faster, and my heater will work better too! Woot!!

Got it put on today, snapped a couple crappy cell phone pics for you guys.

Short days this time of year. The outside pics were taken around 3:30 pm, and it's getting dark already...
