I am going to replace my tinted tails sometime soon, as I thought it through and here drivers are idiots and I have heard a lot lately that tinted tails will cause you to be "at fault" if someone rear ends you. I am looking for pics of these tails on our trucks. Every pic I could find wasn't too great. Anyone have them??? I am torn between these ones and the stock red tails from the factory. Thanks in advance!!!

My OE tails are fading.
As much as I'm tempted to tint them, the one place I don't want to take a chance is the tails.
I do plan to convert them to LEDs though.

ANY modification to any signal-lamp, front or rear could possibly be cited in court.

If you get into a serious accident, meaning loss of life or serious injury to you or someone in another vehicle, a sharp accident investigator could notice your tint or other mod and use it in court.

I say this with a 3rd brakelamp currently replaced with a blank black polycarbonate piece.
I intended to drill it with holes and mount LEDs but time and circumstances got away from me. I plan to get it done before the end of the year.

And this is precisely the reason for me wanting to swap mine out. "Possibly" is enough to convince me. Plus, I feel like tinted tails was a phase. For me anyway
