Which Tail Lights Would Look Better?...

I have a new 06' Super Crew with 24" Wheels and is getting lowered tomorrow. I have a black rollpan and bumper cover on the way so the whole truck will be blacked out. Whick of the following lights would look the best?



These first lights are LED's. I think I like them best.






Below are the headlights I have ordered so they will need to match.




Looking for opinions here.

Thanks.

wow, noone likes the LED's? and since eveyone likes the 2nd ones, why not the 3rd once? they are identical except for the backup light, which is oval on the 3rd ones. id think that would look better?

#1... I personally don't like the protrusions.

#2... Would match best to the headlights you posted.

#3... The oval backup while matching the Ford oval theme, isn't the best match to your headlights of choice.

Harley lights?... Hell yeah.

You '04+ folks have been blessed with a great looking OEM light. If anything, I'd consider "Nite Shading" you OEM tails.

I've got LEDs on the back of my 05 Supercrew (top & bottom)----make sure u add resistors so the cruise will work if you change them all. Also have the exact same headlights as the ones u show-----all looks really good together....

I'm new to this site, but I do have pics------soon as I figure out how everybody else is putting their trucks on I'll add mine-----try to get it on tomorrow------I've got them on floppy, but not with me-------as far as the cruise----the computer in the truck reads the resistance in the incandescent bulbs as the brake peddal NOT being pressed----when u press the brake, the bulbs light & there is no resistance-----w/LEDs there is never any resistance so the computer in the truck "thinks" the brake is being pressed----adding resistors will eliminate this problem. I got mine through superlumination.com for about 8 bucks each (for 2ohm resistors)----also if you put LED bulbs in the front (for turn signals) u may have a fast blink (again---lack of resistance the truck "thinks" a bulb is blown)-----check out the above site (www.superlumination.com) & they can give you some info on which resistors you may need for your application......if you are not replacing you 3rd brake lite w/an LED you may not have any problem b/c the resistance from its bulb may be all you need (I say this b/c I have a DU lighted hitch cover in my receiver & as my cruise worked fine as long as it was plugged in----until I turned on my R blinker [the blinker that causes the duck head to blink]).......I'm by far no expert (barely even a novice)...I've done quite a bit of research over the past few months about LEDs & currently am trying to see if my tail lights are why my brake shift interlock is out now & my truck is in the shop....but that's another post.....
