    Hahahaha glad you like them man! I was pretty much decided that I was going to buy some new OEM ones, but then found these and figured id try them out. I'm glad I did and that so many others enjoyed them too

    So since I showed up to work at 5am and realized that I locked my keys in the shop and wasn’t able to break in (good thing I guess) I snapped a picture of these on my truck. EAAB0298-2C40-42BE-9A4E-D41814F4030E.jpg

    What Amazon lights did you buy? I don’t like how the light shines up on the tailgate like some other photos. Yours looks much better. Is it a different light brand or just a different angle you put it at?

    after having installed mine, i can tell the varying amount of light spill on the tailgate in photos will mainly be different due to - angle of photo and exposure from the image source (camera, phone, etc). i manually changed my exposure just slightly to match what i saw in front of me. at first, my iphone camera sensor overexposed and made the light spill way more than irl. i was also careful to take the shoot as level as possible.
