    Marc that's tight:thumbsup: Definitely an option for me going fwd. I read on Spyders website that installing hids or less voids the warranty, which I'm not to concerned. Are you running hids?

    Currently running what came with. Would like to get the vleds LED micro h1's eventually. They told me I may have to get a bigger dust cap to compensate for the extra three quarters of an inch that the fans take up on the back of the vleds

    I'm biased but I think the V2's look pretty solid

    Steve did the hid kit help ?
    I’m pretty sure I’m doing the same thing

    Mine look like yours. Slight angle but clean. The HID kit made a huge difference.

    Just the DRL strip

    Just the driver side low. Driveway is sloped

    I'm usually not a fan of retros, but those look really good.

    I had them installed. Took the shop about two hours. Yes, much better. It's only been a night but I would recommend them. There's more pics in my build thread.

    I'm having trouble finding the spyder 2.0's online. On top of that, there's limited information on spyder's site about the 2.0 vs the 1.0s which has a lot of info.

    They were $315 when they just came out on a special . Talk to Darren. He is a great guy with great prices. Generally beats any price I have seen.

    Beautiful truck...
    What did you do to make your spyders work?
    I have a wiring issue. What does this connect to?
    I have two remaining connections that dont have anywhere to connect to on the headlight.

    They are plug and play..... Unplug your factory side marker bulb and it plugs into the connection there. Make sure you have it in the right way where it won't light up if it doesn't you just need to spin around and then light up from what I remember. Unfortunately don't have the truck anymore sold it 7 months ago. Good luck

    My side marker plug looks like this and the connector from the headlight in the picture from before wont connect to that.

    You don’t unplug the wire from the socket you take the bulb out of the socket and then plug the Spyder wire into that
    Make sense ? You need to take the old socket out of your headlight

    And before you button every thing up double check the light adjustment mine low beam was off and once the headlight is in you can’t get to the adjusters you can get the high beams are reachable but not the lows you need to take the head light out guesstimate where it needs to go then recheck kind of a pain in the ass

    These are new gen spyders..

    And i dont get what you are saying, i already removed a bulb from original headlight and put it on this one.
    There is still the loose wire that im pointing out that i have no connection for.
