Another taillight question

[fv9]

The driver's side tail turn signal halogen bulb quit working this evening on my 2022 Black Diamond. Thought I would look into LED replacements as Ive read the halogen bulbs are very difficult to find. If that is the case, has anyone tried the STRAUTOS replacements? Ive searched threads but didnt find anything in the last six months and am wondering what people are doing in this situation. If the STRAUTOS are good, are they plug and play with the non-LED halogen ffactory setup? This is what I am looking at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DLNKMWN..._0?ie=UTF8&pd_rd_plhdr=t&aref=qOkEylVAWn&th=1

Thanks!

I have zero experience but I can tell you that you are not going to get a quality tail light. That is also only ONE light. They charge you $168 per side. So that's $336 for some no-name lights?

Might as well buy a name brand such as Form or Morimoto for a little more: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/vehicle-specific/ford-bronco/2021-bronco/ford/tail-lights/

Not sure that I would want to mix and match tail-lights. unless with the exact same brand. It just would never match and could wreak havoc with the on-board computer system. Take a look at the ORACLE Lighting Flush Mount Taillights. These provide a super clean look and incredibly bright reverse lights. You may need to program after install.

Halogen bulbs are not hard to find. You can even replace them with the LED counterpart if you like the style that is original to the BD.
I am sure those rear lamps are identical to the slew of other ones being sold. They are cheap and cheap enough to where you can buy and throw away without too much of a hit.

I recently grabbed these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DJ4KRT5P and they look well built and decent, but I have not installed them as that I was in the process of selling my current Bronco in anticipation of the next one. When it arrives, I will throw them on and see how they are.

I purchased the same tail lights back around Christmas, installed them a week after. As of now they are working pretty good, but I will tell you this, check your connections before closing everything up. The wire that connects the 2 tail lights to the 3rd brake light was my problem. On the passenger side it was loose, so when I hit the brakes, the yellow (turn signal) would light up and not the brake light. Took a few minutes of troubleshooting before I found that out. Other then that, like I said, they've been pretty good and not as basic looking as the stock halogen tails.

Now that’s a Pro tip. Thanks for the heads up!
