Yeah, I pulled the VIN, it has the 3.73. The integrated trailer brake appears to become an option about 2015. I looked at retro-fitting, but the dash assembly is different, unless Ford just doesn't want to list the silver trim pieces around the center stack as a separate item.You might double check your vin against the ford decoder in Etis, in 07 the EL was available with the 3.31 or the 3.73 and both were rated to tow the same load. However they drove and behaved very differently (much better with 3.73). If you have the integrated trailer brake controller (not sure if that was an option in 07?) it would for sure be 3.73 gears. I believe the limited had them standard as well.
Here's what I bought a year or so ago. I like them
I have done a retro on my 07 and working on my second now with a higher end projector. The easiest way to get a retro done is with a Morimoto mini H1 from theretrofitsource.com. robbing parts from a Gator sounds good but considering the modifications needed to the housing itself out weighs the benefits. Your best bet is the Mh1 because it has a threaded shaft that will slide through the original bulb hole and have a large but to fasten it into place. The mini h1 will also blow a gator projector out of the water.
Unfortunately with the Idatalink you really wont gain much integration with an 07.
The entire housing from a 15-16 will not fit a 07-14. The projector it self could be used but it requires custom mounting. If your going to get into custom mounting your better off with an aftermarket projector from theretrofitsource.com.FYI I believe the headlights on the newer rigs are different in shape, so they won't fit your vehicle.

Thanks for ******* in my pool, guys...The entire housing from a 15-16 will not fit a 07-14. The projector it self could be used but it requires custom mounting. If your going to get into custom mounting your better off with an aftermarket projector from theretrofitsource.com.
The retrofit is 100% Plug and PlayThanks for ******* in my pool, guys...
So it looks like I'm going to be following gixer2000's work very closely then.
Are there any LCM changes that need to be made, or is the retrofit replacement (once completed) plug and play?
These are 12" profile pivot strips.
Amazing job doneNot to bash what other people like but these really dont perform well and imo look cheap.
Switchback strips and leds can also be added to your original housing in almost any configuration you like but it just adds to the install time. I added a switchback strip to the blank area of my oems

My last pictures are the upgraded. The first set I posted with the led strip is my current. The upgraded set are the ones mounted with nuts and bolts. The projector in the new set is said to be the best performer to ever hit the market so I'm pretty excited to get them doneAmazing job done
better than aftermarket headlight
Any future upgrades ?
