    He said eventually yes
    But last I saw there was supposed to be a final test of the revised 3rd gen Double cab version.
    3rd gen access cabs and 2nd gen double cabs share a similar if not the exact same brake light so whenever that one gets made we can finally buy one.

    Sweet, more cyclones to mount and buy!

    @Taylor@KC would you recommend the diffused clear for the bed lights? Used those for the rock lights and thinking the throw pattern would be best for bed but haven't tried the clear

    See build thread
    Yes, the diffuse white will be best. I am actually using the clear white, and the only issue is that they can be harsh on the eyes when turning them on in the middle of the night while camping or something. The diffuse will throw out the light with nearly as much useable light, but will be easier on the eyes in case you accidentally look at it haha.

    I want and like this, but I really don't want to deal with the hassle of taking the headliner down. The positive with it being down is I could sound deaden and MLV that area. It was the only interior part of the truck I didn't do and lots of road/weather noise comes through the roof.

    Technically... you don't HAVE to pull the headliner down. You could smash the OEM brake light from the outside and remove it in pieces. because after that, my design will bolt in from the outside.

    Update for the KC version; My Beta tester is going though a life changing experience so the verdict on the "final" design may be dealyed

    Is this design for the 2nd gen? Think it would be a decent place for a flush mount/reverse camera and one brake light.
    Also, I know someone makes a GoPro mountable 3rd brake light that has no lights in it. Maybe look into making something street legal but can mount a go pro?

    I'm still waiting on a member to fit it and give me the OK or not. At this point I think I'll just print another one and send it out to a new member to get some more feedback.
