Just got my replacement passenger light today...pretty much 2 days to get stuff mailed to socal... hopefully this is the last one

Was parked at the beach with the running lights on loading beach stuff and the C shaped lights looked pretty cool...sharp on/off too

Those look good. Definitely a more modern appearance.

I wish there were some good aftermarket options for the flareside. Only on I've found is the "Altezza" style, and variations thereof. (Blech.)



A simple clear-red-lens jeweled-reflector version (think 96-98 Mustang) would be preferable.

P.S. Only the first video is visible to me. No pics.

Just installed these on my 99.

I really like them, hope they hold up well.

Same...I have had them 2 months now and everything is holding up

Just need to spruce up my front end and ditch the flowmaster 40 and I can finally take girls out in LA on dates without them complaining about the drone

WAIT A MINUTE

I figured it out - there was a plug-and-play towing harness that goes inline with the factory taillight wiring plug. it was all corroded and likely caused the issues I was having - pulled it all out and connected the OEM taillight taillight plug directly into the aftermarket light - AND IT WORKS - WITHOUT ISSUES

so that's a good sign - it was the trailer wiring all along. these lights should typically work fine - no fast blinkers, no improper lighting, and they should last at least a couple years. C-shaped looks much more modern at night than the oem ones and brake/signal lights are LED and pretty bright
