I mounted them on my truck almost three years ago and with proper install of the gaskets and a little silicon around the hole, I have not had a leak yet! Only downfall is if you go with the smoked lenses. After a few years they begin to fade, but it is an easy fix when they fade. Find a local body shop and have them mix some clear coat with a little black (a matter of 20 drops (+ or - a few)) and spray the lights until your desired darkness is achieved. Recon has quality products and with a quality install you will not be disappointed.

Extreme, I don't mean to high-jack this thread.. But, Jake, are the LED's predominately brighter than the standard cab lights that come with a stock superduty? I believe Recon's are LED if I remember correctly.

Whenever I purchased the lights the Recon set did not come with the LED's but I think your right that now they do come with them.

And yes the LED's are a brighter bulb
