Post by fy549 »

69 Ford F100 truck ---does the headlights and the lights on each side the hood burn at the same time.I know when you cut on the parking lights,when you pull head lights on the parking lights go out,like they should.Just don't know about side lights on hood

There is no side lights on bump hoods unless somebody installed them just reflectors 68-72 67's did not even have reflectors. Here's pics of 69F250 Hood reflectors

Don't have any pictures looks like they drill a hole in the back of the metal,that goes on the back side of the lens,and drill a hole in the hood so then they put a bulb in it-----took it off hood and you are right it was made,they did a great job on it.

EZ... the reflectors have a foil backing. Remove the foil or carefully cut a hole and mount a 73-79 side marker light pigtail. An alternative is to simply meld a 73-79 housing with the 68-72 reflector.

Got lights wired up it looks great at night with the lights burning in the hood-wire them so they burn with head lights on.

got the lights working they look great burning at night wire them so they burn when the head lights are on-might go back and wire it to the turn signals so it will work when I uses the turn signals.
