3RD LED Brake Light? Smoke or Red?

I 'm gonna order a LED 3rd Brake light, but my question is on a Dark Shadow Grey truck, should I get the Smoke one (close to grey color or the all Red, with smoked bed lights?

Personally I would go with the smoked, but do what you think will look good.

I got smoke for mine the only thing I dont like about it is that when your cargo light or backup lights come on they look purple. But the smoke blends in really nice on mine.

My opinion is that it should match your brake lights.

I got the Hella Tail lights and the 3rd brake light. I like them a lot, but I wish they would have made the center red still like the brake lights. Other than that I like them. I think the red one would look better. IMO

Well I ordered the smoke one. The thought is that sense the truck is Dark Grey, it will blend in. You will not notice it till I hit the brake

So, do you think the LED's are more or less visible for people behind you?

It looked much darker when you were comparing the smoked and red than when it's installed on the truck. Either way, looks good
