    Any recommendations on tail lights that look close to stock but are led and have the led strip around the lights? I don’t really like the clear ones with the black housings. If you have a picture of any it would be greatly appreciated. I would consider a light smoked tailight as well

    Most aftermarket will not look like the stock tail lights. A few on here have gone with the HiRevs. Some of us are going with the tail as turn system in the stock housings once it's released.

    Closest you can get, without the strip around the light, would be replace your bulbs with decent LED bulbs.
    I don't like of the space age looking after market tail lights.
    I do like the look of the original housings.
    I replaced the 2 bulbs in each tail light (and the bulbs in the third brake light) with RED LEDs, and the back up light with LED..

    I found some but they are smoked and might be of cheap quality

    It will enable both bulbs to be used as brake lights and turn signals.

    I wasn’t a big fan of led taillight options, the factory oem taillights are the best, they just need to be smoked which is what i did…..they came out looking great! Transformed look on back of the truck.

    The best product to use is luxe auto concepts
    20” X 2 yards was enough to do 2 tailight & brake light on the back with an extra piece left.

    I used midsmoke for film

    Now you should do the taillight conversion to light up the upper lens.
