    @mesojdm Could you have made your original design incorporate a path for your wiring for your misc roof lights?

    I have the connector on my bench somewhere..it's a small 4 pin. I was going to try and source the OEM female connector but haven't got around to it.
    That's actually the reason I originally went down this path for a custom brake light. I was going to design a passthrough hole for my roof wiring. But After a few designs, I wasn't happy because no matter what you could see the wire coming through looking at it from the rear. So I 86'd that idea and just made it a 3rd brake light.

    Are you planning on black out painting all the PCB boards or just the white ones?

    Good thinking. After looking at it again the red ones might look a little more stealth being blacked out too. They just weren't as obvious as the clear lens. KC uses the same LED/PCB for all colors...they just swap the lens for the desired color.
    Off to painting....

    I think that would look more stealth and more awesome! And maybe light tinting the white clear covers....:thumbsup: Just a thought!

    That design is done and solid. Everyone kept asking for a KC version, so naturally I had to give it a shot.:D

    If you don’t care about someone being local I’d be more than happy to test out the KC version! I have a 2017 DCSB.

    Just to confirm, since I have a 3rd gen Access Cab, these only fit the 3rd gen Double Cab, correct?
