Do those lights come in with fog lamp switch or did you put aftermarket switch in?

Looks great! I was thinking about doing a diode light bar behind the grill but this looks like a much better idea.

I would just tie them into the headlights so when they come on, the markers come on as well.

Here is the link and the Lights I installed. They do come on as Amber markers with headlights until you hit the switch. Rear are linked to brake lights until reverse.

Thanks! I thought about the light bar as well. Just is not as much room with the louvers. Removed the bottom 2 rows for clearance (common issue).

Looks great my friend! So you had to remove a few louvers to install the lights? Can you take a few close-up pics of the grill and share how you mounted these into/behind the grill? I actually thought they were inexpensive LED lights...like maybe $20 each. I was very surprised to learn they were $140 each

Sorry for the delay. These are the only pics of when the grill was off.

Trying something different with the ZR2 badging, also added some matte black window visors.

Nice! Have yet to see anyone color match the "ZR" portion of the badge. Good job and great way to personalize your truck.

Was looking at doing something similar but can’t figure out the mounting piece. Thanks for posting these. I can’t really tell how you actually mounted them to the grille. What did you use and how is it holding up? Thanks!

I Like that a lot. Especially on Sand Dune.

Black badging

What’s the best way to remove the badging? I’ve tried a few different methods over the years but all are very labor intensive. Any tips are appreciated! Thanks!

I used a heat gun to warm the area then took an ice-fishing line and ran it behind the emblem, some adhesive remover was applied gently on the area for about 3 mins then wiped it off. if any is left what is one the rag should be enough to pull the remainder off. Some would say it is ok to use a wheel to remove it. it is really up to you, and what you are more comfortable with.
