Custom Taillights for our shop truck

Well we had the truck for two days now and it's time for mods. First one is taillights we are about to finish up, still have to attach the lens and paint/clear coat it.

We had some pods laying around so we put them in for our reverse lights sense we can't see a dam thing with the camper on the back.

Reverse pods in the taillight

 

Looks good. How are you re-sealing?

 

Pretty dope

 

Looks real nice. One of the best ive seen yet.How were you able to get that clear inner lense cover off?

 

Using headlight sealant and Jb weld for security. Also around the seams adding window weld urethane just to be safe

 

It has to get cut open unfortunatly

 

Yah it doesnt seem to come off any other way. I figured that was probably what i have to do, but wanted to ask first. You guys do amazing work!

 

Post some finished pics when you're done. I thought about butyl+epoxy... but was afraid the headlight sealant would be visible from looking through the clear lens.

 

It is visiable that why you have to paint the lens.

 

Gotcha. Painting The inside or outside of lens?? Unique way to hide it..

 

Outside edges and clear coat entire lens so everything looks perfect, here is the completed vid

 

How did you guys cut them open?

 

We used a Dremel for this set with a cut off wheel. Cutting is no big deal honestly sense we seal it back up and then paint the lens and clear coat it.

 

What type of connector is on the back of those led pods?

 

We made our own 9006 plug and play connector for the truck and the taillights, we have all that kinda stuff at the shop so everything is plug and play. We plan to offer these for a group buy soon just gotta think about what is easier for our clients to do because I'm sure most people don't want to cut the OEM connector off like we did.

 

Isnt custom work and fabbing why were all here

 

Yes but electrical seams to stomp everyone

 

Or some people don't want to hack up their OEM wiring..

 

Id be interested in a set if you guys do a group buy

 

Yes that is for sure although we never build anything that requires hacking off connectors we just provide tap in connectors.

Plug and play is what we want these to be though for the reverse light which shouldn't be to hard just have to find a connector
