Re: What are these lights?

Do you have pics of how they are tied into the wiring harness? I think they may be aftermarket that someone installed as back up lights.

Those must be an extra set of front turn/park light buckets.

They go on the side of your flared bed, they are side marker lights. Indeed for your desert fox, kind of like on the dual wheel rear box.

Crap man so easy to totally miss that! That is exactly what they are the side marker light buckets. They have been off the fenders for so long I thought they where some back-up lights.

Thanks for pointing them out to me now I need to find a better set.
