Is there any how to get the lights out of the grille

[White608]

I couldn't find any info on it. When they are removed is there places in the grille ?

each light is just held on with 2 phillips head screws on the back side. With them out you wouldn't notice a difference in the rest of the grille.
Why would you want them out? its like the raptor signature!

I want purple ones...

I want purple ones...

Anyways..it is my understanding that those lights are required by DOT because of the width of the truck. Someone please correct me if I am wrong because I would love to rip mine out.

No you are correct. Thats why the 3 lights in the 3rd brake light are on when the headlights are on too. Changing them to a different color or removing them completely would be illegal.

Easy on the gay flag Rick! - I want blinding bright purple ones cuz orange looks stupid and purple would just confuse the hell outta oncoming traffic.

But you are correct, the DOT mandated them due to the width of the Raptor.

I never noticed the three in the third brake light before. I'll have to go look at that.

I don't see how the lights in the center have anything to do with the width of the raptor. The additional ones on the outer corners of the fenders, yes, but in the center? I don't see any point other than looks.

Plus, how many cops would really know that it was illegal if you removed them if in fact the center ones are required? I'm going to guess maybe 1 in 10,000.

I must be one of those 1 in 10,000. The three in the middle are DOT 3 required clearance markers.

Its like on a 1 ton truck. It has 5 lights on the top. Its for vehicles over 80" wide excluding the mirrors. The raptor is over 86.
