LED taillights Help

[CLEAR]

Just got in my smoked led taillights from ebay. They are the x3 racing ones. I like the look alot but they dont fit so well. They have too much gap at the top and bottom. I can move them up so the top looks nice but then their is a 1/2 inch gap at the bottom. Anyone else notice this or have a fix?

I hate to say it, and I know its not the popular vote around here; but thats why I don't like a lot of the after market stuff. I am fine with looks and that, but not at the sacrifice of function/reliability.

Does your gap look exactly like the one you posted? Because the one you posted can be fixed by just loosening the screws and adjusting a little higher. I have the same ones in clear and mine fit just fine.

Mine fit WAY better than that. Weird.

If they are too small, they are too small. You can't do anything to make them grown.

As you said, you could scoot them all to the top and find some trim piece to fill the bottom, but that sounds pretty ghetto.

I would check with your seller, see if they have any ideas or return them.

IMO the LED add isn't worth it if your truck starts looking like a poorly made patchwork quilt.

ours fit perfectly....like kman's above. no gap around ours, they fit like a stock lens would....

not sure if this was the issue or not, but when we ordered the seller said there was a delay because an entire shipment was shipped defective and they had to be re ordered. perhaps they had a bad mold? i'd talk to the seller...no way a light should have that sort of gap around it...

here's ours....ours as well or perhaps better than stock. theres no reason for the gap in that first pic...other than a poorly made light.

aftermarket equipment is great, if its made well. and most of these lights are. its not patchwork anything, i'd even say the poorly fitting LED ones look tons better than the dated poorly designed tri color stock units

I have the same ones and they fit perfect. Like adrianb said, check with the seller and see if you can get another pair.

Or just return them and buy from a different place.

I am on my second set of them from X3 racing through eBay and did notice a little gap but could even them out and never noticed it again. that top pic could be adjusted out if they tried.
