Default Bright LED tail lights 07 NNBS

I have an 07 nnbs silverado and I put some smoked LED tail lights on it that I got off of eBay. Not sure of the brand... At night they look good, but in daytime or direct sunlight you can barely see them lit up. I thought that would be the case for most aftermarket LEDs, I passed a similar truck in traffic a couple days ago with some smoked LEDs that were incredibly bright, so now I'm searching again. I am looking for something like these recon smoked red lights: http://www.gorecon.c...Dually&p_cat=44

Does anyone have these lights or similar lights with some pics of then lit up in daylight? I wish I could find some that were like escalade LED bright.

Cool

Recon are bright you wont be dissappointed... the ones i have are wayy brighter than my factory bulbs were

Escalade leds are the newer bigger size leds...there arent many or any at all aftermarket taillights with the bigger led bulb size as they are more expensive...im try get a pic of my taillights for you...

I had smoked led taillights and the smoke tint makes them dim .. i have clear lens ones now.. DAMMIT SORRY FOR THE SIDEWAYS PIC ... i forget i gotta turn stupid iphone sideways for pics on here....those are all with running/park lights on ... i didnt have anyone home to press the brakes to show how bright the brakes are ... first pic is under cover of the car port and next two are pulled out into sunshine...

I would almost say your parking light brightness is better than my brake light brightness. I'll have to check out some Depo brand and see what styles they have. I think mine are Winjet or something. They look good, but they suck. Thanks for the pics!!

I got these Spec-D® LT-SIV07RLED-KS - Chevy Silverado 2007-2011 Red LED Tail Lights but for my GMC through a local audio and electronics store. They are very bright and smoking them wont be an issue since they are super bright

You can get them from Ebay for alot cheaper sometimes

Thanks BlackPanther, I do like the overall look of those. They are simple with no goofy features to them....
