hmm didnt think of that one...my only deterrence from it is that i would have to black them out myself and i have heard the corners are harder to separate than the headlights....

Those do look really good Joey. I was just looking at them last night on eBay, and I agree yours look way better. Do the newer corner lights fit no problem, or do you have to modify them a little?

no mods needed to fit just got to take your time getting them apart and use the
correct silicone adhesive so they wont leak of fog up


boy i need to do the head light mod on my old ones and sell them off
for some new cool ranger toys lol

I bought the headlamps and corner from a member here.....I have never seen the 06 blackouts on ebay every. Never seen them on any other truck here.

Good luck.

I know i'm gonna get another pair of stock 06's and paint them...leave the amber, but paint the background just like Joey's.

Joey...is that niteshade on the amber reflector thing??

You sure get to work fast... new tires, new wheels, new mirror thingies, and now new headlamps... I just have one question... when are you going to wash the truck for the FIRST time?

P.S. I agree, go with the setup Shane posted.
