    Any one running a LED rear tail light  / turn signal?

    Not a LED bulb in the stock housing but a aftermarket housing / lens with multiple LEDs built in.

    If so what company / part number are you using that fits into the stock opening? Any modifications that were done to make it fit? Also I prefer chrome not a black trim ring.

    Pictures if you got em.

    Thanks...Keith

    yeah i'm running them , Napa auto parts / grote lights 4 "round with the rubber ,
    you will have to trim the inside flange , never to be seen then the stainless steel trim rings ,
    you just screw it into the rubber

    Yep they are bright.

    I found these while cruising the Grote website, I eliminated my backup lights so these will be perfect.

    I like the integrated lens with the back-up lights. Very functional and they look great. Good web site too.

    No...You need to buy a special wiring adapter then splice in to the wiring harness.

    LED Tail light 88c9d010
    Found these at a local truck shop. Brand name is Trux Accessories. Item number is TLED-419RF. Damn near perfect fit. May have to adjust mounting hole location. 19 leds, very bright.

    I also have a pair of these. Quite a bit of alteration to get them to fit inside the body opening. Had to enlarge the hole on the truck, and grind down the diameter of the stainless steel trim on the light. Can’t make up my mind which way to go. Opinions needed and welcomed!

    on your truck i see you don't have the reverse lights so I'd use the 2nd set,
    i might have a smaller trim ring to use

    Appreciate that Dix. I’m a ways off from actually installing the lights. I can make either set work, just haven’t made up my mind!

    How bright is the reverse light? My uncle might like that for his new truck project. Gonna show this to him when the truck return from wheels and tires installation plus alignment.

    You will know when it’s on! Being a led, it’s quite bright.
