Fmtv marker light change to led is pretty easy.

You need the following tools:
Large flat head (cap screws and pry bar)
7mm nut driver (mounting bolts)
7mm socket (stuck mounting bolts)
#2 Phillips head screwdriver (led cover and ground screw)
5/16 socket (ground screw nut)
1x led light per light you want to change

Remove flat head screws x2
Remove 4x mounting bolts (nut driver, if stuck, socket)
Pry light loose, CAUTION THE GROUND WIRE WILL BREAK OFF if not careful... Ask me how I know this...
Remove ground wire nut and ensure wire doesn't fall inside cab
Uncouple old light wire
Remove old gasket
Remove Phillips screws x2 from new light and remove reflector
Ensure new gasket is in place
Install new light wire
Attach ground wire
When installing onto truck, ensure led ground lug on light is on same side as the notch on truck
Reinstall light mounting bolts x4
Replace led with new Phillips screws x2

Should only take a few minutes per light. Took me longer to get the right sized tools.

If anyone wants, I'll put pics up once the weather stops being idiotic and either rains or snows....
