@MustangAndy i used them today. All is well with them. My bud couldn’t believe how much weight I had in them. Was using my 30’ strap with D rings.
I had been running down down a very rough washboard road and I’m sure they were taking some abuse.

Hey SPOATman, did you ever get those tail lights we were talking about?

No John. They’re on my list after some DD fog bulbs.

They've added some to their lineup, the ones I have are the only ones offered then. I like that black housing and smoked lens, gonna look great on a black truck.

Those appear to be expendable hinges. You should be able to purchase them from Undercover. They snap in place if they are like the ones I had on one of my BMW motorcycle saddlebag lids.
Ice chests use similar hinges.

@johnday what do you think of these? I like the big outline. The brake and reverse leds look a little cheap.

I like the red outline, but ya, agree with the reverse lights, brakes should look good. I don't like how they show up with a white outline, but I'm thinking that's just the photo.

DD had a sale. Got yellow SLF's for the fogs. Also for MS. SPOAT's Nissan.
Not real impressed with the performance of the SLF's in the truck, so far. But, I kept getting flashed by oncoming traffic last night. I'm going to aim them down and try again. Hoping that is the problem.
Kinda wishin I had gone with white.
Jury still out.
The Nissan was a nightmare. Jack car up to crawl under to access flap. Bend flap back. Opening only has room for one hand. Reach only one hand in. Holding flap back with other hand. Can't see anything. Have to plug wire in with only the one hand. Bulb won't fit. Try,try,try. Can't see crap. Bulb won't fit.
Finally figured it out. DD sent a H8 but should have been a H11. They are very similar and difficult to tell apart under duress. LOL
Called DD this morn. They have super customer service. They have the replacements on the way immediately and with no questions asked. Their chart is wrong on the Nissan. Or, Nissan changed mid-year. They thanked me for my patience and were beside themselves with apologies.
Great company.
