49 dollars for the pair? that's a pretty good price considering the OE replacement pricing

Well,, if I need another part for the truck I will just get it for one of my kids to give to me for Christmas ,, of course I will be paying for it ,, but that way I get what I want .. savvy ?

Re: Thinking of changing to this look on Tail Light lens

i put a set of them on my crewy 'bout 10 yrs ago. i like the look better than the stockers.
if you want them to really pop, put the factory tail light chrome rings on them

I agree the chrome around the bezel sure sets the lens off..Where can you buy just the chrome bezels ,,the ones I have are bent up pretty bad by previous owner.. and they do not fit very well either ,, until some one can vouch for LMC ,,I am kinda afraid to just buy them from any place that may sell them.
