whoh... that's cool!!

 

i'm sure it's just a matter of time until they come out with ones for chevy/gmc's

 

have you contacted recon and asked them?

 

i know i contacted a manufacturer in the past about a part they made for a different year of truck than mine and it was a few months later they contacted me to inform me that they now offered what i wanted.

Chris,

 

We are planning on the HP brake light for the newest generation GM trucks. We are going to have them available this fall!

 

Best regards,

I think the difference is the LED's that are used. The ford part has Hi-Power XML LED's

 

So their email reply says they are planning on HP brake light. HP stands for Hi-Power? Just my guess....

Thanks to both of you for doing the discovery / legwork on this! I'll also be picking one up when they come out.

By the way, here's an installed photo:

I wonder if this style is indicative that some new tail lights will be coming out as well? If so, hopefully something that doesn't look like just standard bulbs in a dark housing. I really like my 2016 SLT tail lights in that they aren't just a standard "bulb".
