New Led Tail Lights On My 08 Sierra

Page, nice write up and pics. They will definitely get someone's attention, the color contrast is so different from stock, especially since your truck is red. Are they brighter at night than stock? Jarrod

Hey Page...I'm with you on the Taillights

I have LED ENVY ...I have been looking for a set myself but the other half would kick my a$$ right now if I drop any more money on this new truck.

And for those who think it looks rice....it doesn't...rice would include bolting one of those "erector set" looking stupid wings to the top of the tailgate We all know the kind that the kids affix to their trunk lids with 3m tape or sheet metal screws, so they get extra down force on their FRONT WHEEL DRIVE CARS...try bolting it to the HOOD next time...jackasses

First-No Comment is a comment....and it's spelled with 2 M's. But I'll let you slide on that one because you're from another country and I feel sorry for you.

Second-Let me get this straight. When you say "sooooooooon you will be gone" it really sounds like a threat, and if so is this against me or my country?

So.....Faisal.....Are you trying to bring it on bud???

Hey Jarrod, they seem brighter. I think it may be the fact that there are a bunch of lights together. My buddy who has a 07 GMC and I both backed up about 3 ft from a wall last night, and had someone else foot the brake. The LED's looked brighter and covered more area with light.

Alright Guys, so my selection of tail lights is questionable. Do you think these would look better?

If anyone has photoshop and would not mind taking the time, maybe you could work some magic on that first pic of mine so we could see what the black ones would look like?

Hey Heysdad, sort of like the LED tails but dont like the way the reflectors look (triangularish). I went with the LEDs for the GMT800 but I didnt like the way that they lit up so I rewired em to function like the GMT400 series c/k pickups and burbans taillights...

Page,

Have you given any thought to tinting them? With the black wheels and such it might not look bad to lightly smoke those new tails.

Just a thought.

Hey Tobias...You nailed it. There's a very good chance that's the direction I'm going to go with them.

Exactly what I was thinking. Clear, I don't think they quite fit the look of your truck, but if you tinted them, that would be a different story. The rest of the truck has kind of a "mean" look to it. Tinting I think would add that to them.

Hey Chris, I did see those and was torn on which to get. I thought I would try to get away from the red lens and see how it looked. Thanks for the heads up on them. Do you have any pic's of them on your truck while lit up?

He used to have a picture of his Isuzu underneath that statement. He was referring to that soon being gone as he's been wanting to buy a new GM for quite some time now is all.

Sorry for bringing back this old thread but i was wondering if heysdad (op) could chime in on how the led tail lights held up? I got me a pair of the black version and am curious if anyone can speak on the longevity of the Depo led taillights.
