Should be, don't remember what it looks like on mine
Say everything goes well with the install. Would my guage clusters "cruise crontrol light" light up or qouod i have to install a bulb in the back of the cluster? Curious on how that would work

Curious question about the buttons. I installed cruise control on my truck (everything works fine). But I was curious how the oem cruise control buttons feel. I ordered some off Amazon. The buttons were not clicky at all and had no back lit on it. So returned them be ause i want them to light up.

I ordered the "oem" ones (motocraft) from oreillys and they are very clicky compared to the Amazon ones. Is that normal?

Just trying to understand the feel for them etc.

I'm asking because the non clicky ones that did not light up seemed to be more realistic/ authentic than the "oem" ones. And the oem ones feel fake. Unless someone swapped them out and I got screwed over

I had oem buttons, they were backlit. As for the clicky-ness, they felt normal, not stiff
