Re: Lets see some tail light mods
I will try to get some pictures... I filled in the factory light holes because of metal damage and put oval lights in with rubber grommets "trailer lights". I'm going to drill the bumper and put 2 little white leds in for reverse lights like these:

Re: Lets see some tail light mods
It's pretty hard to beat the original look of the fleet sides ... Some nice mods to those steppers. Like to see more of the 'fleets as well. Heard of guys frenching caddy lights too. Thanks for pics so far. Some nice work

Re: Lets see some tail light mods
I'll post a pic of my "homemade" LED's. Still working on something for back-up lights.

Re: Lets see some tail light mods
Here are a couple of lousy pics...Hard Drive crashed and left me pic-less.
But I thought I show the clear tail lights and back up lights. On the tails, I used two coats...very light coats...or NightShade spray. I use an LED bulb from E-slay...Just a few bucks. On the BU's, it's just one coat of NightShade (got it at O'Reilly's). I also used it on the front turns, as well. But they're hiding in the grille now. If I can get the ice broken off the cover of the truck, and if you want a better rez pic, I can do that tomorrow.
