Rear lights

Decided to go with the Hagan 10” LED’s. Bit of a pain to install but should fit in well with the truck.

I like it, it's not too gaudy and is still unique enough to be cool.

Should be pretty subtle, probably lightly smoke the lens also and with a blue body color hoping it looks neat.

Non of it. Lights were a kit from Hagan and the bed and roll pan are Mar-K if I remember correctly.

The lights came with a steel plate that could be welded into the roll panel but I used them as a template to cut the slot. Then fit the lens and hit them with a DA until they are flush.

Good job on fitting those in. I like the look but I would be even more afraid, especially on a lowered truck, that they would not be seen by a child distracted soccer mom or a millennial tween on a cell phone resulting in a lot of extra work and heart ache.

That was my thought too. Perhaps an led strip in the rear window would help as a third brake light.

True John, but some idiots are dumber than others and others are just stupid. I just try to improve my odds. Believe me I see all kinds of stupid in my field of work.

I have a third light on my cab just above the rear window (DUH really where else would it be right ).I don't like the looks of it but will keep it until I find something more suitable. Now that the whole inside is upholstered it would be more of a chore to change I think. At least I cause myself more work by getting ahead of the game then I have to take three steps back.
