I ran across this grill light kit, made for the 2018 Special Edition honeycomb grills like on my truck.
I looking at the white bulb color option. Looking for opinions from the forum - get or forget?

I like it, I have mine hooked up but I also have a Raptor grill. I think they look sharp.

Top and bottom would look tough. Matching set for the GC.

One set of lights ordered!
If I like and if they can be adapted to lower grill area and if they can be wired in properly, I may consider a second set.

I did testing of the upfitter switch today and these grill lights, before mounting them in the grill.
Shout out to @FanaticalKilla for helping me by not answering a single text until I figured out on my own that I never connected the 12v feed of the upfitter relay box to the battery! Teach a man to fish, Brother! 🤠
Anyway once I got the 12v cable connected, and the grill lights wired temporarily to the switch #1, all lit up nicely.
By using Switch 1, it will have power only when running engine or in full Acc mode. Once all
Is off, switch 1 in the OH is dead too.
Next to mount the light bar…

I installed these today.
Had a heck of a lot of problems with reattaching the grill shutter assembly to the grill. Ither than that, straight forward R&R of the grill, pull the shutters off, attach the light bar, struggle in the heat for 2 hours with the shutters, replace the grill, connect to the upfitter switch #1, connect to a chassis ground an viola!
I hope they'll look good at night. If they don't, I ain't pulling them off. I'll just disconnect from the upfitter switch.
