What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Unless I have someone riding in the back (pretty rare) I always have the headrests out. Gives me a good bit more visibility out the back. And it's super easy to put em right back in if needed.

 

I remember seeing a mod on here that interlocked the reverse light with the license plate lights so that the license lights would cut out when reversing and not blind the camera.

 

That's exactly why I removed mine the day after I got the truck.

 

It's like $85 bucks though. It's cool, but for the time being I'm going with the $7 mod that partially covers the lights to reduce the glare.

 

What is a the $7 attachment?

Same here. Unless there's a passenger back there, they do nothing but block the rear window.

 

With every penny. @daveeasa is a pro and the harness he builds is better than OEM. One of my favorite mods (next to the DRL harness he built me.)

Oh I do not doubt their quality. I just can't justify that money right now. Eventually I will though.

 

Had mine for almost a year and no problems at all. Really like the extra height you get from these!

 

No problem man. I like it a lot

 

Where do you put them?

 

It’s hard to take a photo of it but did anyone replace their rear light and they aren’t very bright? The front are crazy bright but the back seem dim.

Ah ok. I have the jbl behind mine

 

I just did mine this afternoon. I was unimpressed with the plug-n-play connectors on back of the tail lights. They fit nice but there didn't seem to be any retention. The plugs on my $30 raptor lights seem to be of better quality. I am going to remove them tomorrow and see if I was just being stupid, or if I need to tape them up. i know if I don't I'm going to be stressing out over them coming unplugged at random while driving around.

How did they seem to you?

 

Ah, gotcha. Yeah that could be an issue. Umm... will they fit under the front seats? The only time that space would be needed is also when a passenger would want a headrest, I would think. Janky solution, sure, but might work.

 

Yeah buddy! Two heelers come with me just about everywhere

 

I’ll post the pics in a few days when I get them installed!so you can pull the trigger lol

 

Initially I had them in the space behind the back seats. But I eventually removed the lower seats to create a level platform in the back for a camping trip over the summer and have yet to put them back. Haha. So they're with the lower portion of my seats in the garage currently.
