Differences that I can easily point out and why I chose the Recon.
There's 2 rows of LED's for the brake and it seems that most others have 4..I like the way less looks but that may be personal preference.
This will also be personal preference and a tad nit-picky but I don't like how all the other options have that light on the side of the C-Bar..not as clean looking..check out John's pics to try and understand what I'm talking about there lol

BCA,

My preferences were the opposite of yours -

1 - I liked the more stop/turn LEDs in that I feel the more light, the brighter and better. Not sure if the 4 rows are any brighter than the 2 rows but when I was purchasing I had no idea regards brightness, so went with "more must be better".

2 - "That light on the side of the C-bar" is precisely what made me decide on these lights. That side light definitely shows the lights are on from a side view. Wasn't sure of side view visibility on lights without this side light.

Personal preferences are important to satisfy oneself - doesn't make any brand any better or worse.

Haha funny that we are opposite but yes just goes to show there's always personal preference to take into account! Your last sentence has me confused as I definitely didn't say anything about one being better or worse but I think I'm just reading that wrong.

Yeah, You are reading it wrong. Just meant to point out that personal preferences don't affect (or is it effect) the product.

I'm hoping the new 2019 tail lights fit our 4th gen trucks. I really like how the C shape outlines the whole tail light.

Got mine off eBay, absolutely love them. Makes a world of difference. Little glare on the last one but love the look.

Understand this is an old post, but I still wish I could get my hands on these. Is anyone aware of another seller? This shipping is killer.8b2929e3438a9b1d5967afeb10f92014.jpg

So it depends if you have stock led or incandescent but here is another option for you. These 3 are to replace factory led style. If you have factory incandescent then they have them as well for the same prices on their website. Hope this helps. I have had mine since june without any issues. They were on my 15 ram for a month and now on my 18 since july. Hope this helps

Thanks for looking out! Unfortunately it's the same story there, although shipping was a little better than the ebay seller. Still can't justify over $200 in shipping for how small/light a part these are!

It was free shipping (or included) when i looked at them and bought mine previously. Where are you getting them shipped to?

Same here. I just looked on eBay and there are several listings in the 175.00 range with free shipping.
I should have clarified, those only provide free shipping to the lower 48. I need shipped to Anchorage, AK.
