I think I like the look of those too. There aren't really that many good looking options for tail lights, but those look sweet. Might go for them on my truck.

From the pictures I've seen of the Spyders, I think that the parking lights only light up one half of the light, and then the turn signal flashes on its own.

These ones I found on eBay light up the whole light for the parking lights then have half brake light/half turn signal.
I like the idea of having more light for the parking light, but retaining separate turn and brake lights.

By now anything you are going to find is going to need to have the lenses polished at the very least, and then clear coated to protect against further sun damage. The reflecting surfaces in the projectors could also be damaged, and you'll likely want to open the lenses up to clean out the dust and whatnot. If you already had some it might be worth the effort, but I'd just buy some new ones.

Yeah Headlights depot make good stuff. That is your best option IMHO.

That's what I was thinking as well, thanks for confirming what I was thinking.

Also, Denali headlamps use 9005's (high beam bulb) in the low beams and high beams
From the pictures, it looks like the one I linked to, includes an adapter so it is just plug and play. I really like the idea of not having to modify anything I really don't need to.

Just ordered the tail lights, now I just have to wait for them to get here...

It was these ones, if anyone is interested: http://r.ebay.com/KCaA0R

I'll post a picture of what they look like after I get them on the truck.

Just remember some weirdly mess with the electronics like cruise control and wipers , and some don't. not sure how to tell which ones effect which models and years.

Had zero issues with the Spyders. No hyperflash as resistors are built in. No issues with cruise control either. Here is a pic with the brake lights on after I replaced the 3rd brake light. Sorry do not have a parking light pic to share.

I like the looks of the tail lights I had but the main reason I went with them is what is stated above^^^ complete plug and play and didn't have to add any resistors to deal with hyperflash or cruise control issues

The ones you purchased do look really nice tho. Should look even better on the truck

Fosscore - What 3rd brake light did you use? I replaced tails with Spyders and am looking for the 3rd now.

@VDV18

3rd light was Dorman off Amazon. Here is that part link.

http://www.amazon.com/Dorman-Solutions-923-203-Chevrolet-Mounted/dp/B000TYQB14

$33.50 with free shipping. No Prime at the moment, but the link works as of today

Go to my build thread. More pictures of the OEM light and Dorman comparison. Big difference. Had it since February 2016 and no issues so far. There is a write up as well.
