Check out my build thread if you're interested in anything else.
I agree with you. They are that bright. Mine have not moved from were I put them. No moisture in the tail light at all and I live in Georgia. Only downside is the price but so fair they have been proven to be with the price.

Do these last? How are they? A little concerned about how they seal in the housing. But seem bright as hell.
I've tested them and as others said, bright but they don't lock in. It's a piece of rubber that holds it in so they will bounce around/etc...

I've had no issues either. I even pulled them back out after last seasons deer hunt just to inspect them, the roads I was traveling were extremely dusty and the bulb sealed well enough to keep the dust out.
Also, a note about the lights: they do not flicker, the light output is steady. Sometimes videos can be deceiving depending on the framerate that it was recorded in.

I might try these and pull the seals of the factory tailight sockets and put them onto the seals of the bulbs like suggested by another forum member. That should seal things up.

That's what I'm running also, definitely much better than stock.

I’m assuming these work in the 2020 F150 also?

I have the Diode Dynamics bulbs. They have a 3 year warranty.

And are super bright.

No idea, honestly. They're still going strong in my 2018, however. Check to make sure the bulb part # and socket are still the same and they should fit. Although Ford did change the bulbs in the reverse lights, between 2015 and 2018, without telling anyone, or changing the manual, so I wouldn't put it past them to pull a fast one on the current MY.

yeah I did some research last night and it looks like it’s now the 3156. So I bought the Zevo 3156. I’ll get them installed today. I appreciate the feedback. I’m hoping they last a while with no flicker.

Were the Zevos just plug-in-play?
