This is my first post because I am new to the site so hope I did everything right. I installed Spyder led head lights and tail lights today. Very easy install. Plug and play and I got the grill of easily to. That's what was scary.

Auto. The leveling motors can be hooked up to the new Spyders. You have to be careful though, as they are not the easiest to remove from stock and install in the new Spyders.

They are manual, but you can transfer the leveling motors from the stock ones into these. It was pretty easy.

With the spyder bar light, is there a way to wire it so it's on with the drls? I'm thinking spyder, hid covert, switch back kit for yellow drl to white and bar light always on. Possible? Experts your opinions.....

Not sure about the Spyders but I did something similar with my Recons. I don't have the factory DRLs so I took the wire for the bar light and used an add-a-fuse on the ignition circuit. Now, they are on whenever the truck is on.

Mine is a Limited as well. I've kept the amber drl on. There's a post around here somewhere about how to disable that. It involves a small gray wire somewhere behind the leveling switch.

Isn't there a switch back kit to Keep the turn signal but run white drl, or am I mistaken?
