Was just outside looking at this - remember, I had 1 night with the truck prior to removing/installing the Boost ones. I did turn on the factory ones to blast in my sons face. Lol. I feel like they’re very close to the same brightness as clear. But without some measurement device, that’s a very subjective analysis. I don’t know how to be more helpful with this. If there’s an objective way to measure this, I’d be happy to try and accomplish that.
How hard was it to pop the mirror glass off without breaking them? Have seen videos on how to do it.
To measure the light output, there's some cheap lux meters on Amazon for $30, but that's asking too much. I'd have to buy one, measure what mine are stock, and then mail you the meter for you to test yours.
Beautiful!!! Congrats on one bad ass rig!
The spotlight is about the same. I changed the puddle lights as well since I was doing the switch back. Hopefully this pic helps. Sorry for jumping on your thread OP.

Honestly, popping the top mirror was hard. The boost auto video isn’t the same as the 22, and the A-rod PowerStroke tech guy had a good video on it, but his popped off so easy. It didn’t pop off as easy as he made it look, and that part to me was one of the hardest parts. Everything else came off easy. You don’t have to take off the top mirror motor assembly. You do have to take off the bottom mirror bracket though. Reassembly was a pain also. It was easier once I realized to leave off the bottom puddle lights until after the mirror was back together. I am super glad I did it, but I’m glad it’s over

If you want to do that, I’m totally down. But I truly think it’s very very close to the clear version

I like the XLT mirror caps too that you did. The blackout package ones look like a chocolate covered icecream cone for some reason.

Yeah, I love the mirror just looking all as one piece. I think it’s much better aesthetically. So if you’re gonna do the caps or the side lights, definitely do it all at once. I never want to disassemble those again if I don’t have to
Agreed. I don't like doing jobs twice either. Thankfully the XLT mirror caps are a cheap $ part from Ford direct.
Oh, it looks like you just need to paint your front hubs now to match

Can’t wait to see more pictures of this vecman. Congrats. Love the setup you got.
Just perfect. Not too much not too little. And axles are nicely tucked in too.

Agreed!
Saw that you have the same tires that I eventually want to get.
What offset are your rims?- OP 🔹
- #39
Tires: 37x12.5 Toyo A/T III
I think they look and fit perfectly.
Thank you! That's absolutely perfect. Now I know what offset I need (+6) I didn't want them sticking out and flinging rocks at other cars.
From my math, they stick out exactly 2" more than stock which is correct for a flush out look.
