Hey guys don't really now where to put this thread but i had a question about lights. What are the lights called that look like a red strip right under the tailgate? I think they look sweet but i don't know what they are called.

Thanks

 

line of fire or fire and ice. putco, recon, and a few others make them

 

you think they look good?

 

eh im not a fan i think they look a bit cheesy

 

They look dumb. But thats my opinion

 

ive got one. its ok i guess, only reason i put it on was because a friend of mine gave it to me cheap. some times ill look in my rear view mirror and stop lights and ill see the ppl behind me pointing at it. lol its gets attention

 

I love mine. I have to 60" Plasmaglow Fire and Ice model. I've got the reverse lights all hooked up. They work really well at night. They light up everything behind me when I go to back into my garage at night. It's a big head-turner at night and in the day time you can't tell its there until you press the brake lights or use the directionals. Increases safety a lot for those guys in the rice-burners who are so low they cant see your mains.

From a distance of <15 feet, you see the glow of it hiding:



From 15+ feet, (i.e: drivers beind me) you see this:



Soon I'll be switching out my 3rd and my mains for LEDS to match my Fire and Ice.

 

I personally love the look of it as well as the additional safety factor. You have to realize tho that no matter what mod you do there will be those that like it and those that dislike it, so I figure that until other guys on this board start making my truck payments, I'm going to do whatever mod on my ride that makes me smile and happy!

BTW, I have the Recon 60' LED Hyperlite which you can see at the link below;

As you can see, my street is pretty much for the most part, pitch black, & these LED's are lightin' things up (along w/my Recon LED 3rd brake light...didn't have anyone to step on the brake tho while I took the pic)...of course the fact I took the pic from only 6 feet away too probably helps, lol, but you get the point!

 

lets see the reverse lights, dre

 

I have heard that the lights get crushed by the tailgate when it goes down is that true?

 

Whoever told you that must've been to Area-51 or have been abducted by UFO's. It dosen't even come close! I could stick a Fenway Frank in there and not get touched!
