    Thanks for the link!!
    one last question haha but can I put my own HID kit in them? The pic online is a little misleading with the wiring coming out of the light and I just want to make sure I can put whatever H1 bulb in there

    When i pulled the rear bumper cover off to have it linex'ed, i noticed the bumper reinforcement bar was completely rusted through. The replacement finally arrived, and is now installed. Pics of the rusted out original:

    I did just a little bit. Removing the grill will make it easier to get the bolt in too.

    I found the passenger side to be MUCH easier than driver.

    A little more preventive maintenance. Took off the stock apron skirts and made my own to cover the whole area. Hopefully no more salt spray in the engine bay this winter :D

    The longest part was getting the first side done for the middle. Once I had the template the other side only took 15mins, about 1.5hrs total and 15$

    A thing or two...
    If you did a frontend retrofit, I think it might work. The body styling changes for 12-15, so it wouldn't line up right on your truck.

    Watch the TC install video. They go over how to get the driver's side bolt out without it being a massive PITA.
