That’s just incredible man….. for sure doing this for my 3rd gen mega cab 👍🫡 thank you sir for video and instructions

[@warnerbu7lt]

Thanks man. Just be aware that with tinting the C bar, it does make your brake lights significantly darker.

[@TreeFeller4Life]

@@warnerbu7lt no problem bud and I’m not going to be tinting the c bar, just color matching them 🫡

Do you have a picture or something that shows where you cut the back of the taillight?

[@lowlifesrt4828]

Where did you get your headlights? Taillights look super clean btw

[@edwinheredia4305]

Yo that looks real nice beautiful work

[@warnerbu7lt]

Much appreciated!

[@pairsnpaint]

Aren't these illegal now since you painted over the reflectors?

[@warnerbu7lt]

Yes, but what isn’t illegal to do these days haha

[@maylonjones]

Awesome video. It be cool if you put links to products . Only constructive criticism I can add awesome video

[@Eli-dt4qg]

Came out nice!!

[@warnerbu7lt]

Appreciate it! 👍🏽

[@joshalvarez5007]

Question here, why bake them if you are cutting them?

[@warnerbu7lt]

It softened the glue a little bit and made it easier to cut through. Also the heat made it easier to pull apart once it was ready.

[@GavinLong-f6z]

What color is this wrap it looks so nice

[@regioherrera442]

Do you need to cut them? Or will they separate by baking them and picking at it ?

[@warnerbu7lt]

There are many different methods to separating the taillight lens from the housing. I found heating them slightly and then cutting them to be the most effective way for me personally.

[@JPEGfilms]

you can’t paint over the reflectors that makes it illegal the chrome is ok and everything else is ok but the reflectors are illegal

[@kodythefarmer857]

you need to make a driving video or tuner video i love the videos and truck keep it up

[@brandonfrasard3181]

😍😍😍

[@kalanrideout4147]

What did you use to seal them back up ?

[@warnerbu7lt]

Black RTV silicone

[@ZER0x824]

What's your paint code man? It's a nice color might paint my truck to it.

[@Oh7DirtyMax]

Wish you would of shown the lights on to see how it effected the brightness....

[@warnerbu7lt]

Any tint or smoked effect will hinder the overall visibility of the DRL..

[@JDC8397]

Cutting them wasn't necessary but they look good

[@lowlifesrt4828]

How else can I open them up

[@JDC8397]

​@@lowlifesrt4828should just heat them and pry

[@Ashton.w]

Did you scuff anything other than the lense? And what did you use to re-seal the lights?

[@warnerbu7lt]

Scuff everything with a scotch pad. I used RTV sealant linked below the video.

[@Ashton.w]

@@warnerbu7lt for one Thankyou for responding, for two I really don’t know if you mentioned what you used or not, when I watched the video there was a lot going on, but Thankyou man, I have these same taillights brand and all

[@tannerderby2524]

no hate at all they look great but why no scuffing or primer? are you worried the paint will flake at all?

[@warnerbu7lt]

Thanks Tanner, the paint that I used was actually a textured trunk/toolbox paint which has built-in adhesion promoter and doesn’t require primer before hand. If I was using regular or automotive paint and looking for a smooth glass like finish, I would strongly suggest scuffing the surface with scotch pads, using some sort of adhesion promoter and priming prior to applying your top coat.

[@SIKF150]

Did you had to cook them or just cut them instead of heating them ? Lights came out sick!

[@warnerbu7lt]

Thanks man! Heating them up isn't absolutely necessary, however I found it allowed the plastic to soften a bit which made it easier to cut through with my dremel.

[@SIKF150]

Ahh got you thanks mann keep it up bro 💪

@@warnerbu7lt first timer here, what part are you cutting?

[@nikki5ive3hree38]

I just bought these tails and tried doing the oven thing and I snapped the corner..I plan on painting a lip around the lense so hopefully you won’t tell but now I’m going to cut them like you did

[@warnerbu7lt]

Yeah they’re sealed really tight, the only way to get them open is by cutting them.

[@nikki5ive3hree38]

@@warnerbu7lt what glue did you use to seal them and how are they holding up

Do a headlight video how to install please

[@Lbzdmax68]

How do they look lit up now.

[@AntThe1]

U should’ve left the white led white to match the front ones

[@warnerbu7lt]

I did actually end up redoing the tail lights when I rewrapped the truck and left them clear (white). Both styles looked equally great imo!

[@upnorthlivin814]

Where’d u order the tail lights from? I find a ton on Amazon but there never spyder branded

[@warnerbu7lt]

I got mine from TDot Performance in Canada. But CARID carries them in the states also!

[@antoniodelatorre8139]

Did you install the shocks on the tailgate ?

[@warnerbu7lt]

Yessir! It's the Deezee tailgate shock, only $25 and worth every penny!

[@javonsedwards]

awesome did you use epoxy for sealant

[@warnerbu7lt]

I used a black RTV sealant that has been incredible, no condensation at all

[@javonsedwards]

@@warnerbu7lt cool do you have a video of the tail lights illuminated

[@corywarner]

@@javonsedwards no, but there are photos on my IG. They’re pretty dark tbh.. if I was to do them again, I would tape off a small centre strip to allow some light to come through for nighttime driving.

[@javonsedwards]

Ok thanx

[@elcompatavo9365]

Looks cool but painting the reflectors is unsafe, and illegal , everything else looks good tho

Anyone have a link for these tails not trying to pay over 200

[@warnerbu7lt]

Unfortunately if you want true spyder branded tail lights, you’ll have to pay over $200. Also, I’d advise staying away from cheaper “eBay” lights as you’ll likely have LED’s fail in under 6 months. Just my 2 cents..
