The ones in my avatar are smoked. The lens has smoke in the glass not tint. The ones in the pictures are clear lens with black inside. In utah the lens must be clear. Even though it was very slightly smoked I still got a ticket. The other issue is they do not have an amber reflector on the side. If you live in a state where they highway patrol is on it I would not recomend smoked lights. I ALSO SOLD THEM ALREADY.

I thought new lights would be bit too flashy for me but they are growing on me. I liked how they are one peice.

The projectors are fine. I can see good at night and I am color blind. The projectors put the light where it should be where my old lights seem to scatter the light quite a bit. I put HID's in the old lights and they really helped me see at night but the light was so scattered that everyone thought I had my brights on so I took them out. I have been told the HID's will work like they should in the projectors but the HID's also were not dot approved. I am on a mission to make sure everything is legal on my truck. I orderd some of the mufflers for my stacks... Ill let you know how much they change the sound and flow.

You shouldn't need mufflers if you're turbo'ed, the turbo is considered a muffler. Although how many police do you know that will pop the hood to see if you have a turbo if they think you are running a straight pipe. I straight piped my N/A and have no problems with the police and it is LOUD.

Depends on where you live not all states recognize a turbo as a mufflercookoo

Who was it that was pulled over by a police officer and they asked "What kind of muffler are you running" To which the IDI owner said "Its a ATS brand." LOL

Sorry guys went down to Phoenix for some sun....

The lights came off good old flea bay. I knew they would have a selection and I picked these because I like the one piece look. The other option was chrome and I already thought these were a bit too euro but they have grown on me.

"ITS AN ATS BRAND" was me!!!! haha that was a different UHP and it worked on him. I tried that this time and his reply was that a turbo is NOT a muffler. The ticket listed that particular offense as "straight piped". The officer literally crawled under my truck with a flash light... The mufflers for the stacks were only 100 bucks and im kind of excited to see how it changes the sound and flow.

Mel. I will get a close up for you but if you want a link to the lights on ebay here you go http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Bron...ptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

They have some other ones available in a one peice too. I have learned that they make some cool stuff but alot of times you have to search under bronco instead of the trucks.

These were a breeze to install compared to the three peice headlights that come stock. I also left the two outside bolts on each side of the header panel off so I can more easily get to the lights for a bulb change ect. You would have to have a crow bar to get them to move even without the two end bolts.

Black grill was under 50 dollars on ebay and should be here next week.

TAIL LIGHTS AND MUD FLAPS AND I WILL BE LEGITIMATLY LEGAL IN UTAH!

I truly wish I didnt have the teenage mentality when adding all the smoked/illegal stuff just for looks. I could have an intercooler and some extra cash with the money I have spent on fixing this bad decision....live and learn.
