Has anyone put lights like this on their 2nd Gen D50?

How did you put them in? What kit did you use? Pics? How hard is it? I really want to go for some of the full-size truck style elements on my truck, and I like how these look.

Can't be too difficult. Locate the center of the cab roof, install the lights in a farther-away fashion that suites your aesthetic sense. Once installed, wire the lamps in series and connect to the running light circuit.

Since you have a D50, you could use the roof lights from a Dodge fullsize truck with the Chrysler pentastar in the bulb cover.

I would recommend something that doesn't appear overtly out of scale to the truck.

How complex is it to run the wiring down to the rest of the truck?

take off the "a" piller cover and run the wires to the fuse box.
