just for comparison, my '72 has the factory marker lights setup like the second pic.

Personally, I like the first pic style better. Not only is it Big Rig style, its also what the old Dodges used.

Style one. Style two just doesn't look right.

I guess you have no choice now. Go with option #2 and you violate 14 motor vehicle codes and face up to 5 years in federal pound you in the *ss prison.

BTW, I vote style 1.

the above is for vehicles 80" or wider. A dually pickup would have to comply with this, but a SRW truck can do it any way they feel like...

yet, I still vote for #1

I'm sure you're right highboy, it's just an annoying quirk of mine to do things the right way even if it's not required. :doh:
Although it would be tempting to put them on sideways and backwards just to say "up yours" to the DOT. :evil:

Style 2 apparently is factory. My '71 is like style one and my '67 is like style 2. I personally like #1.
