Round 2 with my tails is done. So far everything works the way it should. Picked up a set of the tube style c shape. It stays solid with my brake and running lights. Turns work. Only thing I haven't tested yet is cruise control. Will have to do that later this evening when I have to head out. Everything else works and this set has what I'm assuming is resistor packs already wired I to the harness. Hardest part was just getting underneath and pulling the light harness undone on the underside of my truck. Beware this post is pic heavy lol. Will post some shots this evening of them lit up

I love those tails man. How much did they set you back?
As of right now I have mixed feelings on them. I like that everything works the way it should they way they light up is pretty killer. What I don't like is the bottom of the lens where that little red reflector is, the lens bubbles out a bit for no good reason. I wish it was smooth like the my other tails. But it's just my ocd kicking in. Theres nothing actually wrong with it haha. They came out to about $150ish with tax. A little more than the smoked lens led c shape lens I just took off. The cool part was after all the back and forth with the seller and the videos I took showing them how the tails functioned dofferently, the cancelled the purchase and also did not require me to ship them back. So I'm not waiting on the other purchase price to come back nor do i have to spend money to ship them back.

Two resistors per side?
You won't have any trouble with the cruise control.

They look great. I see what you mean about the bubble, though. Can't see a reason for it.

The more I look at that damn little bubble in the bottom of the tail light lens, the more I hate it and think it makes my truck look super ghetto..... but I think I have a solution.... got a pretty crazy idea in my head, stay tuned.....
