Thanks. I ordered 2 sets of spots. Once I pulled the tails off, I thought I might have goofed. Oh well. I'll order a set of side emitters for the tails and give the other spots to my dad for his cargo lights. Late bday present! LOL

I'd like to order these lights, can you confirm the website and part number? Maybe email me. Also, are the tail lights stock or smoked aftermarket? Like to get some of those also.

As for tails.........we don't do em anymore fellas. :-|

And yeah, these are a LOT brighter than I expected. Work great for in the bed, reverse, DRLs, well you get the idea.

self tapping screws.



pricey? $65 a set, with the wiring......and it kills the WalMart specials. Its direct competitor is from Phillips, which retail around $200.

Where is this price at? Site shows 75 ish

The site is reflecting the current pricing. (one of the reasons I hate it when I post a price on something.........inevitably the price changes). The thread is a bit old....these went up quite a while back.

I finally installed mine today. This is more of a temp install. I couldn't really find a place I was happy mounting them. So I temporarily mounted the lights to my license plate frame. I just drilled two holes in the dealer frame, where the two lower bolts would go. I then screwed the brackets into the frame and plate.

I made a T-harness, to tap power off of the OEM backup lights. This harness provides all of the power my backup lights need. I didn't have to splice any factory wires. I know it's not that big of a deal to tap the factory wires, but I prefer not to.

Here is the harness I made.

As you can see, a pretty big improvement in backup camera performance. Much less grainy. It wasn't even completely dark when I took these pictures.
