AmeriLite Chrome LED Bar Replacement Brake Tail lights Set For Ford F-150 - Passenger and Driver Side

Nice looking. Can’t speak for long term quality yet

Look awesome, absolutely happy with these taillights.

I've bought these lights 3 times but that isn't a bad thing. The 1st time was for my truck. The second time was because my neighbor has the same truck and wanted the same lights and asked me to order a set for him. The 3rd time was for my neighbor again because he backed into something and broke a taillight. The set on my truck is 3 years old and everything still works as it should.

I had to cut a fair but of sheet metal to get the heads to fit in the truck because the top head locks into position at the incorrect angle. Both left and right sides needed a good amount of steel trimmed to get these to fit. Normally I can understand corners being cut on a cheaper product, but its just the hole being made at rhe wrong orientation. It takes $0 to change the design to make it fit. Kind of an inexcusable oversight. Additionally there's a screw that needs a very small amount of metal trimmed to fit, as well as a small tab of steel on the bottom that I had to bend out of the way for a plastic detent that is on this taillight housing that simply didn't need to exist.

First impressions, I like the look. Had installation problems. The top connector locations did not have the correct 'clocking' of the connectors. I had to cut my inner bed light opening on both sides, folding the lip upward to allow the connector body to clear this opening. Exposed primed sheetmetal needed some touch up paint to prevent future rust. Amerilite did not do their homework. Since I'm complaining, the clear lens fit to the openings in the body sides were not as tight as the stock lights. It is what it is, the price was right.Improvement over stock appearance.

I really like the way these lights look compared to the stock lights. They are bright and the red tub light is a nice accent. They arrived quickly and in perfect condition from the seller. It took me about an hour to install both lights. Just remove 2 screws holding each light and it slides right out. The socket from the old lights plugged right into the new lights. Don’t forget to install the seals/ grommets that are included so no water gets in. This is important! I had to sand down the backup light seal since it was just a bit too thick. Not a big deal. I also used a q-tip and put a small amount of petroleum jelly in each socket to keep them from corroding. All and all these lights were an improvement to my vehicle both in style and function.

The Pros.The items arrived well packaged and protected. They improve the look of your truck 100%, the material seems to be durable and a good quality. The lights are bright, plug and play easy to install. They install solid and it came with the regulators for the LEDs. A great upgrade from the OEM looks. It took me 15 minutes to install.The Cons.The top of the lights by the tailgate doesn't completely folds with the vehicle (see pictures) like the OEM. This is not a deal braker and barely noticeable.After the first hand washed, notice water accumulating inside of one of the taillights. The wash was using a garden hose, so no big pressure was applied directly to them.I will give them 3 1/2 stars, but I do like so much the look, that I'm willing to deal with the other issues.I'm not planning to return them (too much in love with them) so for the water issue I end up sealing with clear silicone the edges and drilling small hole on the lower part of the lights in the black enclosure. Test them (this time by applying full water pressure directly to them and their edges) and so far they are great and dry.UPDATE:I had to bump up my rating from 4 to 5 stars, I contact AmeriLite 3 weeks after purchasing, one of my lights (the want that was taking water) started with a fast flashing. I thought that was the resistance but after testing it was the light itself. To my surprise they sent a brand new one in couple days, pay for return of the damage one and everything. Really great and fast response from the vendor.So far no issues at all. Great to see how they stand behind their product, for this reason they do deserve a 5 star rating.

These tail lights were what I expected them to be. They were easy to install and look great on my 2013 FX4. I had read other reviews prior to making the purchase and will warn against taking information from other reviews to heart too much. No additional sockets are needed and proper research would tell you to plug the wiring from the tail lights into the bulb sockets on the truck. I also did not have to trim any of the socket opening to get the bulb socket into place. It was a tight fit but worked as it should have ( you must note that the socket only fits one way due to different sized tabs on the socket, and when the socket is put in in the correct orientation it will turn and lock into place). All in all the only real complaint is that when spending this kind of money on something like this I would expect installation instructions in the package and not have to rely solely on You Tube videos to see what needs to be done.
