Depends what trim level the OP has if he can even upgrade what’s already in the taillight. SLT and up are already built-in LED and not replaceable.

Not exactly sure what exact bulb it is but check out lasfit. I have their LED recessed lights and it’s a huge upgrade. Stock ones barely light up anything.

Give the LED reverse light from headlight revolution a look, installs right above license plate. 
 

put one on my AT4 this week and am impressed.

 

must have if you have your windows tinted, even with the oem led reverse lights side mirrors were worthless at night.

 

this takes care of that issue and doesn’t glare out your camera in reverse.

I haven't done anything in regards to my reverse lights to this truck, yet. But, on previous trucks, I installed Rigid light pods. Easy to mount under the bumper and the light output was excellent. Plus, the 3 way switch was great. I could use the lights while hooking up a trailer at night or for anything for that matter. If I remember correctly, the kit was around $300 which is kind of steep for lights but it was well worth it.

lasfit t15 led bulbs

rigid ignite flush mount diffused. 
does not wash out the rear camera.

Have you done the LED blinkers/brakes? I love that the elevation has the led C lamp, but I wish my others would be led as well.

Funny you should post this.  I was taking measurements for the same lights today, mounted in the same location.  Do you have any pics of them with the lights off?

 

also, how bright are the diffused lights?  I like to have them on a switch for when I am hooking up a trailer or unloading the bed at night.  I was thinking of going with the flood version.  That was stupidly way more money.

I have not replaced the brake/ turn bulb yet. I will probably do the lasfit led bulbs when I do

I drilled a 1.5” hole instead of the 1.75. I took a small dremel bit and made the hole just big enough for the light. I had the diffused on my current and previous truck. They are great for hooking up trailers. They are super bright. Look on YouTube( Ridgid industries ignite lead beam) at the difference in the different light beams.

      No Software Updates - Old Build

      By DaleB · Posted

      Hi all - my current truck is a 2022.5 1500 High Country 3.0. I bought the truck used last year. After doing some digging, I noticed that my truck's software is stuck on the original build from 2022. I have no available software updates. I talked to my dealer about this and they recommended not trying to force an update since the 36,000 mile warranty is expired. This is a big bummer since there have been many major releases since that have fixed small issues and improved speed/usability.   For reference, the current software build number is: full_gminfo37_gb-user 10 W158E-W164.4.2-QIH22B-563.3 158 release-keys Has anyone had a similar experience? Should I just forget about it and move on, or try a different dealer?

      Using zip ties but 2-3 they snap due to sharp edges. Just using a shoestring. Last longer. 🤣

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      I ordered the Snap On...waiting for it to come in later this week or early next week.   New front cover, new crank seal and new balancer are on. Water pump, pulley, fan, hoses, and plastics reinstalled. I can move forward knowing all my timing marks are dead on and the front engine is hopefully sealed better than it was. Take 2 with the water pump...trying high temp thread sealer on the lower bolts.   Rebuilt injector and new-new regulator is in, it looks like new. Top intake reassembled and all the bits are reconnected and snugged down.   Thinking about knock sensors again, I located both of mine and, there's your problem, Francis... The driver's side one is broke, plastic is bashed in, part of the wire is bare, and it appears to have been damaged like that for a long time. I saw the wire but didn't think anything of it. The knock sensor might not be my pulled timing issue, but it sure looks suspect. It must still be conducting, otherwise I'd expect a CEL. But perhaps with its sacred crystal inside exposed, jilted and dirty, maybe it's sending mixed signals. So I'm waiting for one of those and a new pigtail to come in. Pass side sensor looks good, except for the spark plug wire resting on it (!). The plug wires are healthy so it shouldn't be causing an issue, but I separated them and added zip ties to nearby looms to keep everything well apart.   So, I'm down to installing a knock sensor AND, oh, replacing the exhaust and cat. I actually think that's going to be fairly easy, it's all bolt-together, all new stuff from Walker is laid out on the shop floor ready to go. Hopefully have this thing on the road again for the weekend.   My luck? It will still be leaking oil, coolant, pulled timing, intermittent CEL for running rich, or it probably won't run at all -- because that's how this project has gone.   I've never worked on a vehicle so ...hurt? ...cursed? in my life. Everything has been effed with SO HARD, but I think...knock on wood...I've managed to undo all the backyard stuff and we're almost reset back to "just" an 80k mile, 30 year old Blazer.

      Would this CV Shaft be bad?

      Yes. You need to check out that thing, and the hub further.
