LED tailgate bar

http://www.autoanything.com/lights/69A4298A0A0.aspx

so all my searches for pictures on this forum have led me to nothing. Does anyone have any pictures of tailgate LED light bars installed on their tacoma?

 

9 out of 10 light bars i see are not working properly. they always are half burnt out or have a dozen leds that are dimmer than the rest...they always have something wrong with them

 

Yeah, thats what Im seeing from what people are saying on the forums. Maybe Christmas lights would work better. At least you can replace the bulbs...but that would look white trash IMO.

 

lol.
these are the only kind of leds i"d use...but they require cutting, mounting, and body work...

what he said

 

I've seen probably a half dozen locally, usually on F150's. They're not appreciably brighter in their brake/turn signal function versus them being on as a regular tail light. And during the day, the sun overpowers them too.

 

I got the cheap one from Walmart. Had to trim the plastic lip off it because every time I put the tailgate down, it would hit them. It was cheap and I cut into the housing so some water has gotten in there and sometimes it works. Might rip it out soon. The fire and ice ones seem solid but expensive.

 

and alot of money $$$$. Those are crazy expensive.

 

I followed a car the other day and that was the ONLY lights on the back of the car. The tail lights were blacked out and didn't look like they were working, no third brake light, no turn signals would have liked them better if there had been other lites to go along with it.

 

you get what you pay for...

the plug and play ones are cheap chinese made junk

I talked to chuck about his when I had a street truck and he said his will last around 11 years

 

Not my bag of tea....Sometimes less is more!!!!

 

bingo


your truck looks good! 2011 and already lifted

 

My cousin has the one from LEDGLOW and it is pretty sweet, and my friend has the same one. I would post pics but they both have chevys. Personally I think they look pretty cool, I might get one when I have more money.

 

too ricey...

 

Thinkin nah..........

 

No thanks.

 

they are nice, but don't you have to rip it off to crank down the spare tire,because hole for "winch" is in the middle?

 

I strongly agree.

 

I have been thinking of getting the Xtreme Scanning LED Tailgate Light Bars by RECON.

You should get the wing to go with these lights! If you are gonna make it look gay, might as well flame it out.
