I just ordered them from Amazon.  Be sure to click on the 10% coupon, grand total of 60 and change.  And that will finish me out for Lasfit LED's all the way around my truck.  The front ones are amazing, it looks like the rear ones will be a homerun as well.

Once you get them installed, would be interested to see if you have any issues with flicker or heat/cutting out. I saw some youtube videos where folks were saying their LED retrofit blinkers would stop working due to heat.

 

Also which headlights are you running?

LASfit H11's and their switchbacks for my turn signals

Thanks. Had morimoto LED bulbs in my 14 1500. They looked great for a couple months then got quite a bit dimmer. One side of the bulbs just barely illuminated. I am guessing heat is the reason. Had no luck getting any warranty coverage on them.

The lasfits have a 1 year warranty.  I installed the H11's and the switchbacks on Nov. 10th of last year.  They are still perfect so far.

It appears we have a problem Houston.  The backup lights will blind aircraft at 30k ft.  They are absolutely amazing.  A definite buy for now but hang on before you get the tail lights.  I'll contact Lasfit and see what's going on but here's what's happening.  The parking lights, brake lights and 4 ways work perfect.  About 2 seconds after you turn a blinker on it will speed up and give me a fault message on the dash.  Both sides do it so let me get with Lasfit and see what the scoop is then I'll report back.  Get the backup lights.....dear lord....wow!!!!

Email just sent.  I'll be sure to let you all know.  It's funny that during that fast blinking, they actually worked during that time but obviously something is wrong.  But I can't say enough good about the backup lights.  I'm pretty sure you could do x-rays on your hands and arms...LOL    they are so damn bright you can't actually look directly at them for more than a second or so...I absolutely LOVE those.  Talk about making backing up easier at night!!!

Might have to try some. And maybe the others if they give you a legitimate reason or a fix. Headlights too

I am a true fan of their headlights, switch backs and reverse lights.  Literally night and day difference.  You will love them!!!

What are the switch backs?

Those are your front blinkers.  They call them switch backs because they will show white or amber depending on if you are using them as a turn signal or as a running light of which is all automatic.

 

Edit:  Wait a minute, I screwed that up a bit.  The switchbacks are not used as daytime running lights.  Only the low beam headlights.  At night the switch backs will be white, then turn amber when used as a turn signal.  From the factory the bulbs are amber that you will be replacing.  I hope I didn't confuse that too much.  Hell I'm confused now....lol....not really but I hope I said it right that time.... 🤣

Honestly this could go 2 ways from Lasfit.  First way is, those bulbs I bought that were sent to that youtuber are not listed on their site for our HD trucks.  So I may end up having to eat them so to say because I really jumped the gun and bought what a youtuber was excited about.  Or they could say no problem, send them back and we will refund your purchase.  But I can't help but be curious as to why they sent that guy bulbs that are not listed to work on our trucks and if that's the case, why hasn't he said anything on his youtube page?  He must know by now that they don't work as a turn signal or they do work but will cause fast flashing and a fault message.  Either way all is fine.  If I have to eat them not a problem.  Trust me, I've had to take bigger losses then those lights in the past...Just life...lol..

    • I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.
    • I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments
    • Looks like the entire state is burning. 😬
    • Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
