Here is the link to the ones I installed a bit ago. Quoted from the thread a few days back.
"Here are the tails I ordered..
http://www.gorecon.com/product.php?p...ord+F150+04-08
Here is the 3rd brake light...

They were both on sale and the discount code "4x4" helped even more. Like $120 more!"

I just bought the tail lights that SINCITYFX installed. If I had know about that password I would have bought all three from RECON.

I just experienced the same problem trying to install the light today. Thanks for the post! I will try again tonight.
I noticed that there is not much of a rubber seal around the Recon light. Do you think moisture will get in around the outside of the housing?

I put clear silicone in first.

Just finished installing mine. What a pain in the butt!!
First, I had a hard time pushing in the white tab. Once I pressed in the tab, I was not able to pull the wire out enough to get to the plug. It just seemed that the wire was not long enough.
Finally I was able to disconnect the wire inside the hole and used my fingers to pull the plug through the other hole. This was a pain because I was at work and did not have needle nose pliers to help.
Oh well, at least it's done and it looks great.

Just a heads up to all of you guys, I sealed mine and it still leaked today.
Take extra care. I am gonna use a homemade gasket and silicone this time.
