Marker light or clearance light? The marker is dual filament with the TS bulb.

I was wondering if that fixture used the clearance light behind that white reflector. The car HAS to have a white or amber reflector in front to satisfy DOT.

You can't just "pull them out." You must put the lights into an oven and "lightly" bake them so the glue heats up and then that allows to peel apart the light and pop out the amber. A few of us (when I still had it) aero body CV's tried it, few have actually suceeded. I myself went through two sets of junk yard lights trying and failed at doing so. Maybe I had too much heat since the plastic lights actually started to warp so I just gave up on it.

it depends on the light too i guess. one of my friends took apart and painted his ranger lights black. he said it was nerve racking but he got it done. as Jarod said youare pretty likely to ruin it, but if you can monitor your stove like border patrol then i think you will be fine. what about niteshade?

It's hard to just get the amber by itself, and it will probably look bad if you can tell if it was just painted over.

Those corners are aftermarkets that will show condensation after a year. Fit and finish is subpar.

Adam who's Ranger is that? Those sidepipes look diesel but I doubt it has a V8 swap.

its a friends 07 Ranger Base model from Maryland... met him at a Ranger meet. everything was done by him. no sense in paying someone when you can figure it out.

he has a magnaflow muffler if im not mistaken and it sounds amazing. no V8, im pretty sure its the 3.0 v6

its because its lowered.... it handles and rides better. pretty sure its a 4/5 drop but couldbe a 5/7 drop. its low and fun. no body roll at any speeds. oh and he will need those traction bars because he is throwing a supercharger on it.. hmmmm i wonder who will have theres on first???:banana2:
