Theyre the full LED BLIS tails. Ford only has two types on the 24+, excluding the Lightning.

Edit: you’ll want to swap out the BLIS module from your current tail light. It’ll be plug n play with no programming needed.

Wow, that price!!! Sounds like a good time to get some good aftermarket lights, at a whole lot better price, for two.

Personally, I’d look for a used oem unit on eBay. Those you linked are the 21-23 style.

I’ve always been a Morimoto tail light hater so I’m biased haha.

I put OEM led replicas on mine as I wanted the full LED function and OEM look. They were about $250 per side.



They look and function identical to OEM and the BLIS unit is plug n play.

Thank you. Going on my 402a. Wondered if BLIS would require an alignment procedure. Thanks for tip. Prefer OEM and like these LED lights. Thanks all for responding.

Having all the fancy features is great. But, wow it's hard to believe a tail light cost $2k. Had to replace a windshield in the wife's Lexus last week it was $1800. That was bad but at least it requires more work and all the Driver Assist/camera stuff is mounted to it. But a tail light $2k?? Wow!!

Check this out. No wonder thieves were hitting these trucks so much.

My BLIS clones were cheap compared to the OEM stuff and of course my truck doesn't even have BLIS but I still went ahead and threw on a bead of butyl all around the housings to try and keep water out of the lights.
