I’ve done this same upgrade about six months ago. I also did the taillights as well. Overall I am pleased with how bright they are. As far as anyone say they aren’t Legal in every state they are wrong, they are OEM and DOT certified. If color is a problem they also have a red plastic version of this same light3A8ED1FF-EFDF-4A65-983D-9A9DC5F82AB5.jpeg 141FAB72-4CCE-4A05-A0BC-11659CFB4A82.jpeg

When you install the 3rd Brake Light flasher, where did you mount the control box? (Inside the lift gate. above the headliner, or someplace else?)

Above the headliner. It’s got an adhesive pad that makes it no problemo.

I did the clear upgrade, came from Amazon, no issue with fitting it. Problem is, the clear version on a white Expedition dictates a taillamp swap to clear. Or does it, maybe, uh, dunno, still kind of looks a little off. Probably not, already too much drama inside the existing assembly's front and back, that secret aviation upgrade took days, and I still need to finish the right front assembly, s****e systems are not easy! Oh, no, got to go, the aliens are calling! P.S. D.O.T. certified and approved, judge, please stick this citation uppa your a**

@LokiWolf how well does your washer fluid spray out of the led light housing? Mine has a pretty intense jet, but it’s missing or over-spraying the rear glass, I barely get any cleaning out of it. Any pointers on getting it to a more reasonable pressure if you did have to modify?
