Montana Sky I have a set in the box and need a break in the weather to put them on. My DW doesn't think she will like the look, I've seen it and think I will. I brought the white light bar, hoping the back up light will sell them. When or if you order I have 30% off code you can have?

Dennis,
30% off! That would be most appreciated. I am thinking of going with the yellow light strip for the side of the truck, like pictured on the Dodge on their web page. I had a set of running boards on my 01 Silverado that had the little LED lights already built in, I really liked the look of them. I noticed the red bar for under the tailgate, am still thinking about that one... Will let you know if I am going to order.
Thanks,
MS~

If you want to see LED lights,may I suggest the truck jamboree at I80 Truck Stop in the beginning of August. It is a show of over the road trucks that are dressed up by the drivers and they are unbelievable. LED's don't use the power that regular lights do and are a advantage. If you want look at I 80 Truck Stop web site and they will have the dates of the jamboree.

I've also seen on Tick My Truck neon light bars. I think if you want side lights that the way I'd go.

We had those as OEM on a custom 3/4 ton van a few years ago. Very nice although this van was stationed in Northern Ohio and the lights did not hold up under snow, ice, salt, etc conditions.

Broome101 Glade to here you are able to still get the discount, it helps! I put mine on the truck late last week as we had a warm day. I like the look it will back the back of the truck more visible! I was hoping for more out of the white LED's to help with backing up, but there just more for looks. So now I have a new task to install back up (fog) lights.SeeYa

Hi, no strips, but I replaced all my factory turn, brake and clearance lights with LED bulbs on the truck and 5ver. They're pretty neat. Had to replace the flasher on the truck tho due to the low voltage. mick

May be a better way but I striped back a little wire, wrapped and soldered onto feed then taped and used wire loom and tight it all up. Did not wire the turn signals to work, just the brake, running lights, and reverse.

Got it all installed today. Works great not impressed with the reverse light not much to it, next time I would have saved that extra 30 bucks got it with out that, but like it none the less.
