    This truck is a work truck - not a lot of fancy mod's here, but it's getting the job done!
    I realize that there is a search function and have searched, but really didn't find any reviews of this particular one...

    http://www.amazon.com/Eautolight-To...UTF8&coliid=IC9K1NU01Y7UJ&colid=1QB8YAPQNRFGI

    It's a projector/halo LED light with clear corners and LED daytime running strip below where that metal body trim piece is now...

    Just looking for peoples .02 please

    Compare to this:

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004W4OP88/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER


    Are either of these worth the money? Or am I just better off going to a stock replacement?

    Thanks for the help!

    IMO go with the first set because they come with the corners but don't add the l.e.d strip under it. I personally don't like the l.e.d strip on trucks as they look way better on say an Audi

    They are good you just have to reseal them, I bought some from bay and resealed them and so far they turned out great

    I agree, I was going to maybe use the LED strips as aux backup light though?? since they don't come with wiring instructions though or even a diagram of which wire is which, I may avoid them...

    Reseal? How did you do that? Run a bead of silicon around the seam? Or did you take them apart and then put them back together with a sealer?
