LED Taillight color
Going to go LED on all my bulbs and did a couple searches and one search said that if you put a white LED behind a red lens it will look pink. Other threads made no mention of this.

So if I put 3157's in my 2017 f250 brake lights light I be buying the red LED's?


Thanks guys

Rule of thumb is to match the lens color.

That'll work for you. I've had LED tail/turn signals for quite some time.
