It is all in means and method. The instructions are one. Note, a bad one. Removing the grill another. I started this thread as a warning only to those who buy this overpriced product. There are better ways. Aussy's product Moustas, is the ticket. It fills the whole space, thus covering my f_€《_p. About 1/2 the price. Shipping is not cheap, but still less than f150. Enjoy I'm done, I hope this helps.

I tried the cheap Ebay lights first that only required small holes to be drilled. Install was easy but the lights sucked. It was one of those you get what you pay for things. Each light had 4 dots that lit up. The F150LED lights are brighter and the whole rectangular lens lights up, not just 4 dots. The Aussie lights are probably good as well? I dont even think they were an option when I bought my lights almost 2.5 years ago. I have ordered a couple Aussie products that weren't available in the states. Good products but it sucks waiting a month or more for shipping.

Yesterday I tackled the install of my Mousta grill lights kit.

I was apprehensive about removing the grill. And I hate dealing with plastic tabs. The grill removal involves 12 plastic tabs. Despite being careful while pulling AND looking at videos/photos trying to determine just where those tabs were located, I broke 2 of the 12 tabs. So the grill removal was kind of a frustrating experience, but maybe mine was just tighter than most.

I will be putting everything back together today and wiring the lights up so I am not out of the woods yet. The 2 broken tabs should not be a problem as far as everything fitting securely.

I did want to mention several things to anyone who is about to install this kit.

(1.) As someone previously mentioned, Mousta’s customer support is good. Because of the time difference, I had almost immediate email responses across multiple time zones. I did the work late in the evening, so someone was on duty down in Australia at that time. And his responses helped me.

(2.) There are actually two approaches. I tried what looked like the easier approach which is depicted in a short video on the product website. It did not work for me. I could not lean the grill out far enough to get at the torx screws across the grill’s top. “Wimya” has a different installation method on his YouTube channel, so I tried his approach. I had watched his video i initially a few weeks ago and it looked easy, so that’s why I bought the product. But his video omits the actual grill removal steps. And now I see why. It is more involved and frustrating. But it worked for me - except for the two broken tabs.

(3.) Shipping from Australia was pricey. With taxes and shipping it cost me $211. And a $30 tariff bill from FedEx followed a week after I had received the kit.

(4.) There are 2 kit options: single Aux controls and dual Aux controls. I went with the single which is the more expensive option.

(5.) It is cool that you can switch between Amber and White. If you are keeping stock DRLs (white) it is a pretty good look. And if you go with amber DRLs you can match up with that too!.

(6.) The lights are bright and don’t have the “dots” look. It is a very OEM appearance.
