Side Running Lights?

I've always liked the looks of the big rigs with the side amber light running under the door, the length of the cab. Do any of yall have them on your dodges? I've seen the Recon Lights, But would like to see them on a dodge and hear how you like them!

Pics?

Thanks
Rick

I really enjoy my recon side running lights. I installed them a little differently than the directions bringing them closer to the cab.

Here is a nighttime pic:

I have the recon side lights on my 01 and I like them but wish they were longer they don't go the full length tire to tire that is what I wanted but they have a setup so you can have tehm blink with your turn signals, but I just got mine bright all the time you can really see them at night, I like them pretty good. Have not had any problems out of mine ( knock on wood )

I ahve been thinking of getting some polished stainless strips and putting my own lights on that then mount it on the metal at the very bottom of fenders and rocker panel kinda give it that look like tha carhaulers have on the sides of their trailers nice shiney metal with some lights from tire to tire

well I am not Halo but I can answer that they are a little flexible but don't know how much you can flex them before they break the LED wiring and stuff, but they mount with little hangers that you use self tapping screws and they say to put them on the rocker panel mine are on the flap of sheetmetal below your rockerpanel but you screw the peices to your body and they kind of just hold the light strand in place and gets screwed in like 5 places

King5335 is right. I mounted mine a little tighter to the body where the mounting brackets are kinda folded over the light bar to sandwich them in.
