Any long term updates on aftermarket flush tail lights?

[TheGriffin1313]

My pass side tail light got some unintentional damage from my high jack mount.
So I figured to replace it with new Led flush tail lights.

Does anyone have long term experience with them and any quality issues they may have?

Any recommendations for a Base chongo

Before I buy a set.

Thanks peeps

posted this in another thread but overall oracle has been great for about a year now.

oracle thoughts/review:
great, should have been the stock look. i hit one stock one wheeling and banged it up and replaced with oracle. nice low profile and reverse is nuts bright in a good way.

not doing it again but i would get the amber/white kit if i was installing it from the start. it wasn't available when released.

install tips:

• take your time and don't break tabs. it's not hard though.
• i zipped the required resistor to the blis sensor tabs. easy location.
• electrical tape the connector from the brake light to the reverse light. mine was disconnected to start and came loose again. pia to remove and fix.
• they are stupid hard to get flush. i ended up using some thick felt washers to get it even (especially drivers side)

I love mine and have had no issues. The install is easy. The spacer washers provided at the time (not sure if they updated them) are garbage. But thanks to @broncorik he found that rubber bump stops can be easily modified to be used instead.

Thank you for all the good info. I did post this originally in the lighting section but some admin moved it to here

These are sweet too

So oracle is the only game in town

No trouble. Great lights.

+1 on loving my Oracle flush tails. Install was pretty easy, I also had an early order so hopefully the spacer situation is better now. Wound up getting hubs to 3D print some to the height I needed (using a super technical “washers high” measurement). Honestly, the newness hasn’t worn off and every time I see factory tails it dumbfounds me how awful they are. And yeah, the backup lights are stupid bright.

Get them.

Agree on the look of the stock tails. I'm constantly looking back at my Luna with flush mount body-color tails and admire the slimming booty lift it gives.

I figure to put in the 4pin trailer hitch adapter since it would be the best opportunity.

Have had zero issues with oracle. They look great and have given me zero issues. Install was very easy, worth the investment in my opinion
