    It's a 3 beer job, at worst.

    Only thing is that you need a rivet gun which would have stopped me cold if I hadn't been able to borrow one from work.

    One of my favorite mods since I got my truck.

    Holy chit, I've done a lot already!!
    And measure, measure, measure. Oh and prevent drilling through the top of your hood. A little nerve wracking, but not hard to do.

    Is there some special type of rivet gun needed? I thought it was just the standard type needed like I bought at Home Depot for under $20.

    No, you have the right kind.

    I just never had a need of one before... Maybe there are more projects I've yet to discover that would warrant actually purchasing one?

    And yes, use a ruler and make sure you follow the directions. I tapped up my drill bit with an assload of masking tape to act as a "stop" once I got through the metal. That was the most nerve wracking part but if my un-mechanically inclined ass can put them on then you're probably going to laugh at how easy it is.

    They are pretty inexpensive but not used often. A good tool to have "just in case".

    You're missing a rinse bucket. Don't knock it until you try it.

    Guuhhhh... I keep going back and forth on wanting to get those... I think my truck is too "rough around the edges" for that look.

    Definitely want to swap out the OEM tails I have that are standard incandescent bulbs and the "pink" reverse lenses...
