Anyone install LED body lights?

Looking for pics/suggestions on body lights for our trucks. Not looking for pics of the LED line-of-fire or Recon big rig lights but bolt on LED lights. Thinking of putting some lights on the front/side of my truck and would like some suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Not the best pictures, but maybe you can get an idea from what I did...















I have some of the same lights on the mirrors as running lights and turn signals, but they're not wired up yet. Green strip lights for supplemental lighting in the cab aren't wired either.

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks for the pics. Any daytime shots of the lights on the front of your truck? I like the way they look. I am going for pretty much the same look, just with LED taillights and 3rd brakelight as well. Thanks again!

Thanks.

All of these lights I purchased online from JCWhitney. They are relatively inexpensive, and are easy to wire up.

I had to slightly bend the aluminum channel for the front air dam, but it only took a few tries to fit the curvature of the front end.

Here's a pic in the day...they're somewhat hard to see, because I sprayed them lightly with NiteShades paint.

I have LEDs from oznium on my quad and they have held up pretty well. They also use a very small amount of electricity. (I left them on once for a day and the quad started right up.)
