I have a long story behind the process of getting these, going to try and give a quick version. Originally ordered the Spyder C-bar LED's but was sent a pair with a clear lens instead of smoked like I wanted. The white C-bar stuck out like a soar thumb and I didn't like it at all. If I had a lighter colored RAM or chrome accents it would have been fine but it didn't match my color scheme. So I sent them back for the smoked lens version. Told they're on back order so I wait weeks, told still on back order, wait weeks again, over a month goes by and still being told back order. Ask for a refund after the 3rd time and they immediately started offering every other product they could. They offered the Recon but they were double the price so I asked what they were willing to do for my waiting and inconvenience.The guy was nice about it and said he'd work out a deal, only catch was I had to order some LED reverse bulbs from him as well. These tails do not come with reverse bulbs at all so I was going to need to order some anyway.
Total came to $380 and I took it. Looked up these parts immediately after and from what I can find I should have paid easily $500. The reverse bulbs alone were $100!
I lucked out! :happy107:

I just sent you a PM about buying your OEM LED Taillights if your looking to sell them now that you have the Recons.

Damn I just convinced myself I didn't need the recon ones but they look too good. Digging the emblem as well is that vinyl?

Thank you! The badge is a resin type material very similar to a fridge magnet. Google rebadge designs..guys name is Nate. Very friendly, great product. I emailed a hand drawn picture and he got back to me with a computer generated image of that final design in less than 2 days, and delivered in about a week and a half. Front matches.

Those are looking really good. I wish they had those more blacked out.

Why would they pull you over?
Tinted tails in Md is illegal and LEOs around here have a sixth sense for finding them. It's uncanny..lol

Can always tint them.



Looks good man, although $100 for some reverse is kinda crazy. lol

Oh trust me I completely agree..I want to say he charged me $80 for them but that's still a lot lol..I originally paid $220 for the Spyders then gave him an additional $160 for the Recons and the reverse bulbs..So I'm thinking $300 for the tails $80 for reverse bulbs. I don't mind the higher price point though when you end up with a great result.

Thank you everyone for the kind words! Took a break from the world for about 9 days because I just became a father. Made my morning more pleasant! :happy107:
