Question LED Tail Opinions

Alright I need some feedback from you all. What one of these do you think will look the best on the back of my truck. I am going for the black/blue theme.

These are the headlights I have.

I don't want the cover to be black, just the insides to match the front.

Definately would go with #2. If you use the promotion code "4x4" on the Recon site it takes about $90 off.

I went through three sets before going to your option #2. They are by far the best LED tail lights. They don't appear as dark in the Ebay pictures, but the smoke is DARK!!!

of those 3 I would choose #2 also but just another option that would match your heads with the clear lense and black housing there is these...

I always kind liked them a little better because the reflectors in them don't look like tumors, but its your truck and you have to live with it.

Thanks for the heads up, I use that and got 120 off the tails and 3rd brake light plus 70 because they were on sale! Might as well as spend the extra $80 and get something quality for sure.

If you were in Vegas the drinks would be on me for sure!

New lights finally installed w/ pics

Here are the Harley styles heads from ebay.



Here is the Recon tails and 3rd brake light.




And a night shot with the cargo's (the blue is perfect and matches the heads/maps/dome/plate) and tails lit, no brake shot yet.


Thanx for all of the input everyone!!
