Am I missing something?

What is the difference between the stock tail lights and the harley davidson tail lights? I have a broken right tail light and want to replace it. If the harleys look better than I can't see the difference between the two. Also how much are they both? Thanks FTE.

The Harley lights are slightly tinted. I cannot really tell. Go with the all black. I know you will like them. I was going to just replace my cracked tail light with the stock one, but unless I was quoted wrong, they wanted $249.00 just for one side. That is why I spent the money for the pair of the black led's. I am so glad I did.

FYI OEM=original equipment manufacturer.

OEM is stock/original

Congrats on the ebay find. Like you, I could not see any diff in the harleys by photos.

Where did you get the black LED lights? Any pictures for your gallery?

The lens is the same on the harley lights, the difference is inside. There is still chrome around the bulbs, but the rest of the inside of the housing is black. The difference is subtle.

DASTUD, Does the upper and lower black portions of the taillight light up? Or does the center light up only?
They look great on a white truck but I think it might be too dark for my black truck.

Both upper and lower black portions light up. I think they would look sweet on a black truck. I did post some pics in my gallery, check them out. They are not the best pics because it was night but you can get an idea of how they look.

Pics are in my gallery now under the Integrated nav. Not the best pics but you can get an idea of how they look on a white truck. What do you think?

I love them. Thats exactly what I want, possibly the stock replacement. It will be a little while before I get them. Working on new furniture for the crib, but I am making my list.

They would go very will with my led light bar under the tailgate.
