I have that installed on my 2018. It needs brighter LEDS. It works and looks cool but the bed lights especially need to be brighter.
The price is a bit of a rip off too. Maybe worth $50, I think I paid almost $90.

Thank you. I had already upgraded the lights to LED on the stock housing. I think now that I am upgrading my tail lights that it would be good to upgrade the brake light to something darker, more fitting.

thanks for the info! I'll see if the bulbs transfer over since they'll be going to waste from my original brake light.

Let me if you can upgrade the LED's in the Anzo brake light. What brand bulbs?

Got the 3 LED's at f150led's before i read a bunch of bad reviews for that site. So far all the led's i've got from them are working good. But once i get the anzo i'll see if the LED's can be replaced.

now to find new head lights.... :-)

I’d keep the original and apply a tint to it. I tinted mine with vvivid air release tint. Looks awesome. I also did the tails with the same tint

Thanks for posting this. I think I might try this first before I replace the brake light. I don't mind the light I just want the smoked appearance. I order some film and will give it a try. Could be a nice savings!

I’m trying to post pics, but it won’t let me for some reason.
