That nonsense is a big thing around here. My OT daily =98 BMW 528I had cheap aftermarket smoked taillights and dark tint on the windows and cheap "halo" headlights when I bought it and I boght stock tail lights and headlights for it and shaved the tint off.
Personally I am getting to like the idea of AD burb or 37 Chevy car tail lights and housings fitted to the posts on the bed. A clean look that is custom but blends in well with the rest of the truck.
Following a truck with the lights in the back of the cab rather than at the back of the bed would be like following a truck pulling a flatbed trailer that didn't have lights on it. you don't know where the back end really is at night.
