Default CAB LIGHTS...??

So after owning my '01 for almost a year now, i just realized i do not have the Cab Lights as most 3/4 & 1 ton trucks do. Was this an option from the factory to not have them? Anyone else not have cab lights?

It's the law for a DRW to have them, optional on SRW. Don't be hating on the Farmer Lights!

Typically vehicles over 80" wide require front and rear marker lights... like cab lights and the one's on the tailgate of duallies.

you can buy the whole kit with harness, template, from the dealer for uner $100 I think it is 90 with tax.

my 06 didnt have any. Drilling into the roof of a bran new truck was the worst part.

A center punch to ***** the spots to drill is a good tip. that way you dont trash your template and it gives the drill a place to start.

I think they are part of the towing package from the factory. that's the way it was explained to me anyway.
