I got them from Tasca Ford, and had a buddy paint them. FYI if you buy the black textured ones they are $10 a peice versus $45 a peice for the paint to match ones. The textured one take more prep time to get smooth, but worth the price.

Good thinking. Tasca Ford seems like the go-to guy for most of this stuff. I'll have to keep that in mind. Great looking truck Flame, I'm trying to close the deal on one just like it, except it has the two tone paint job with the ingot silver trim.

Josh at Tasca is graet! got the caps and trailer brake control from him. Cheapest place I have found.

What is involved with getting them put on? They don't stick on do they? Cause I ain't down with that......

From his photos, it looks like you remove the mirrored glass, then possibly unscrew or unsnap the back from the inside of the mirror housing. If they were just snap on, can't see a reason why he'd need to remove the glass.

Yes, you have to pop the glass out, then there are four torx head screws that come out to release the whole front mirror housing. Then there are four clips that hold the cap on. The only hard part(or I should say scary part) is popping the lenses out!
