Oh! Just had an Ideal.

What if you mounted some TRACTOR LIGHTS in those holes?


Maybe some Hella 500's, one on each side I really think it would look GREAT!

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!
I can just barely see dad's F-350 Ranger from where I am sitting right now. BTW it is actually 30 years, they quit making them before they started making the actual Ranger (which went into production for 1982 as a 1983 model)
:icon_thumby:

I had a '79 F-350 Supercab Ranger.

Yea. I'm trying to get ahold of the f-250 badges that have the "F-250" clear with a green LED behind it.


Edit: like this.

Having green lights anywhere on the outside of your vehicle is illegal, just sayin'. (Unless you're an EMT and have green strobes, with the proper permit to use those strobes, of course) Any light visible from the side of the vehicle must be amber, if it's before the rear wheel; and red if it's behind the rear wheel.

That hole has always been there, and the American Ranger didn't make it to those markets.
Your best way to cover it is painting the badges, or put a blinker on there.

I've seen some doing that and it looks kinda ok...

I did but I painted them black and then installed them. It looks okay but I would rather not have them at all. Still it looks good painted.
