Hardest part is knowing how far back from the windshield to put them. Stock lights are no problem but aftermarket lights can shine on your hood if too far forward.

Jmo, I don't care for led cab lights. I like a nice clean OEM look

I know a guy with an 07 with factory cab lights. Got a roll of kraft paper and put it on his roof. Cut out where the lights were. Made some measurements. Laid the template out on my roof , put the recons in the holes, marked with a pencil and started drilling
