Hey KR....

you and I are in the same place.... I have my truck, more or less finished with the blackout theme, besides the 3rd brake light and tails, also.

I TOTALLY prefer #1 over #4.

And it's only $49 ???

I think I've decided on my 3rd brake light.... Going to save that link right now...

Peace,
Fish

PD, Doh ! I thought there was a link with that first pic.... Search for "racing guys motorsports equipment" did not find it ???

Link please ? Thank you.

KR, I almost went with #4 myself. However I had the idea of painting the black housing red to match my truck. I think if you wanted to paint it DSG it would look awesome!

Decisions, decisions...

I have the same thoughts. I like 1 with the DSG. The black would look off without being on a black/chrome truck.

I got the recon 3rd which looks alot like one.

Fish,

I was wrong on the price. It is $23.90 Buy it Now, plus $15.00 shipping so it is only $39, not $49....

To see them all, I searched for "F150 Third Brake Light Smoke" on eBay. For the black ones, I used "F150 Third Brake Light Black".

Do you have any pictures of the Revotec you have on your truck?

Thanks,

Right on. Thank you KR. Even cheaper :-)

Link saved. I think I will order that one very soon. It has to be a big improvement over the all white stock one.... especially on a black out truck !

Perace,
Fish

i only have one crappy pic of the revotec light:

I have zero complaints. it fits perfect, looks great and the price was right. i also prefer the incandescant bed light bulbs in the revotec to the led bed lights that my dad's recon had.
