3 wide and 6 down. I like this pattern a lot better then the APCs. This looks a lot more like the QX56 pattern. Just takes someone with enough guts to be the first to buy.

Yeah the only way to find that out is to try them. They actually should be able to tell you that over the phone though. I wonder what their return policy is? Could you purchase them and then try to return them? Worse case scenario if you didn't like them, I really bet you could easily sell them on ebay as a "like OEM" taillight replacement without the bulge for the price you paid.

Looks to me that these two lights are the exact same exept for the chrome part for the backup light...And I did buy the other ones (on the bottom) and the running light is below the backup lamp.

Ohh....so you do already own the martix led ones? The matrix ones being the one on the bottom with the bigger reverse light area. So those have a bulge too? That bites.

I think the ones shown on top also have the bottom light as the one that is the running lights. I believe I remember the thread where the guy posted saying yeah those are my taillights but my truck was stolen yesterday or something odd like that. I remember those have a ribbed area at the bottom, but at least it isn't the traditional bulge from the APCs and matrix ones.

Welll the saga continues! I called to see if the running light was above or below the reverse light. I was actually helped really quickly this time which was surprising. She said hold on ill find out...30 seconds later she came back on and said "we do not have these in our stock!" So...hmm...yea, im over this company.

These do NOT have the bulge at the bottom but the running lights are only on the bottom bars and the LED cluster on top only lights up during brake and signal. These are the ones im adapting to be brighter and to have all the LEDs turn on for both brake and running lights. But dead stock, I dont think its what people want.
