    I am thinking about getting exterior brake lights on the rear of my truck. But I can't decide whether i should go with a BULLY LED Hitch light with the accent flames or a full LED brake Strip? What would you guys recommend?

    LED brake light strips are GAY!:eek: IMHO

    Of course the hitch light isn't much better.:cool:

    Unless the added light is on the top of the cab... I don't see the point. If it's low who else is going to see it other than the car right behind you which can already see your tail lights:rolleyes:
