    has anyone ever flipped the tail lights over and switch sides with them so the ambers are on top and the brake light on bottom? just wondering, thought it'd be cool:p

    let me know how it goes!! sounds like a good idea, lol even if it doesn't work. maybe separating the lenses from the housings and flipping just the lenses.

    the bottom is slightly different, but fits just fine! and all lights work the same...my phone needs to charge a bit before i can use my camera, but i'll put a pic for you in about 10 mins

    Interesting idea. Its one of those things that only a person that's familiar with the trucks would know you did, but those that DO know would think: "Oh wow, look what he did there!" Its like me wanting the solid orange corner lights. Its details like those that set you apart from the Alteeza-clad, sheeple. :waytogo:
