i bought new tail lights today and installed them :thumbs:

 

there TYC lights just like my headlights / parking lights

 

they have a lifetime warranty so that is pretty cool and they only cost me $57.00 i was going to buy them cheap ones off ebay but then i found these at work so i jumped on them.

 

i will post pics in this thread this weekend when i wash my truck :D now everything on my truck is clear/chrome (for lights anyways) it all matches.

 

they are part # 81-5555-01 if anybody wants to know..

 

this is what they look like:

i forgot to add the backup lights are REALLY bright now too.. and the brake lights and trun signals are brighter than stock which is nice..not like them cheaper ones which are not very bright at all.. also all of the holes lined up perfect TYC makes some good stuff!

Sorry, not a fan at all. Chrome in tail lights just looks ricey and out of place to me.

 

i knew i was going to get alot of replies like this... oh well some could say the same thing about clear corners and everything else... its obviously not a "ricer" so it doesnt look very out of place to me.

 

on of my tails was cracked and wanted something other than factory :thumbs:

I hope it doesn't prove to be the case with you, but I was just reading on another forum where a guy claims he never had a problem with cops pulling him over until he got some Anzo taillights. I know they're a different brand. But, if it's a "look" the cops don't like, I hope those Altezza's don't bring you the wrong kind of attention...

 

By the way : Why does that link say they're not available to order??

Hey, as long as you like 'em that's all that matters. I'm just not a fan of chrome on anything other than grilles and bumpers most of the time. :thumbs:

i am not sure.. i went through a distributor at work.

 

and on the legal stuff.. i read over TYC's catalog and they give you a little card to put in the glovebox saying there legal.. if a cop wants to he will give you a ticket since they can pretty much give you a ticket for anything not stock... but it has all the reflectors and markers in the correct spots..

 

i see some off of ebay where you need to put different lights in different spots .... and on stepside F150's the ebay lights actually elimiinate the back up light LOL
