Recon sells them. Its the led tail lights and they come smoked. I think people that swapped out their bulbs for led bulbs said it didnt work well.

An LED replacement bulb is never going to be as bright as an OEM bulb IMO. If they are as bright, they are going to be way expensive. Skip the replacement bulb and go for the entire replacement tail with LEDs built in.

only problem is i cant find any black backround LED tailights for the stepside F-150's, all i have found are ones that have a chrome backround which isnt what i am looking for.

The only LED bulb I've used that was as bright or brighter than stock were the ones from LEDtronics.com

And the only LED bulbs that are brighter than stock are the factory ones in newer mountaineers and 09+ mustangs, will prob run you around 75 bucks to snag both and a little fab skills to put em in if your up for that. Seen it done on a bunch of rangers.

I bought a replacement set of LEDs and an electronic flasher from superbrightleds.com. They seem to be at least as bright as the factory bulbs.
