Tail Gate LED light

[Ledawg]

Anyone added a LED tail gate light to their truck? I like the extra visibility. Ive seen some that have the backup light built into them. I just would like to get one but looking for suggestions. I don't want any Amazon junk. I'm about over buying crap from Amazon that doesn't live up to the hype.

I thought these were played out a few years ago. Everyone I see on the road now only has 60% of the lights working.

I added a Union Pacific 36864B dual function light, but I just use the Stop light. These same lights that are OEM spec on heavy duty trucks(tractor/trailer).

I bought the new Putco Switchblade from [email protected] here on this site, love it, mounts with clips so you can pull it off to get to the Rams spare tire hole.Has back up light and works great, here is a pic of running light during the day, I bought it so idiots not paying attention see my brake lights light really bright .

I just put the oem on mine, only works with lights no brake or turn

If you want the full width, look into putco or opt7

Opt-7 for me. Running, stop, sequential turns and reverse. Also LED bulbs in oem taillights

did you plug and play into triler harness? or what?

 

[Ramm5.7]

Yes. Curt wiring harness adapter(you can get a 4 pin or 5 pin) plugs in line into trailer hitch behind bumper for hidden wiring with adapter pigtail to plug 4 or 5 pin whatever into

You need to make a video showing those turn signals

If you buy an Opt 7, make sure you get the "red" turn signal variety. Tht amber color doesn't match our trucks well. I just installed mine and it was the 2nd best modification I've done since buying my truck last year. The HID lows and LED fogs were the first. I love the reverse light. No one will ever "not notice" you backing up. Change out the reverse lights for LED bulbs in the taillight housing for the complete effect.

I put the opt 7 redline triple. Been rock solid. I mounted inside the rear window tight. I never thought the tailgate was a great place because every time i have to wash mud or saw dust or whatever out of the truck i goes right to where light bars usually are mounted.

Plus i like the look and I think it is way more visible in traffic.
