    I like the 2020 TRD taillights on my MGM, the gray color behind the chrome blends into the truck nice. Wish they did it all that color, but they match with the chrome in the LED headlights for the now pro too.

    I used to work for an auto lighting place that carried Anzo, Spec-D and Spyder lights....most of them had problems after 6 months. Never seen issues with OEM. I think it is best to pay extra and stick to factory lights when possible.

    All 3rd gen share the same style headlight 16-21. They just vary in finishes. They will all work

    I really want to add a tint to my tail lights but don't like any of the aftermarket options available, these Spyders are the best if I had to choose today. Wasn't sure about the brightness of the reverse lights but they don't seem too bad. Thanks for sharing.

    Can you share which light you have above your license plate?

    That particular LED strip isn't sealed well. They came in a two-pack and both failed in less than a year. I now run a slightly different one:

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MN9XYIG/
    The adhesive backing on the LED strip isn't outdoors-rated. I replaced it with 3M 38582 molding tape:

    I tapped into the trailer connector for the brake light signal.
