There's a storefront window on a curve I drive by everyday where I see my reflection as I approach and go by. The white switchbacks look so good it makes my day every time. Also when I walk up to it after unlocking it.

Can you share the link to the switchbacks? I’m looking on Amazon for my 24 XLT and they say Laserfit does not have a bulb to replace my truck

Unfortunately, it is telling me these do not fit my Maverick. I’m going to look and see if the bulb number on my 24 is different from y’all’s….

My bulbs are 4257NA….. does the NA make a difference? Forgive my ignorance

They are the right ones. 100%

You can't always go with what the random "does it fit" filter Amazon uses. Since it is based on often incomplete data sets.

Thank you, order placed

Google 4257NA. Its a common label for amber bulbs. Of all varieties. I promise those Lasfit I sent the link for will work. If they don't, flip the bulb 180 degrees in the socket. That's the only thing that tripped me up for one of them.

Next project is to find a sub woofer that will sound great for the lower frequencies that will fit behind the back seat. I don’t want the 8s and 10s won’t quite handle the lowest tones I need, but putting a 12 back there will be a challenge. Any suggestions there? I’ve already replaced the front door speakers and it made a tremendous difference, just no significant bass. I don’t care about loud, just the sound quality

Nope. I'm not an audio guy.

I drive an XL, and have the Lasfit Amber. Best choice I ever made! Like others, I also prefer amber over white. My personal opinion on the switchbacks are that there’s too much white light in the front of the truck after install , the amber contrast better. Again, my opinion. When headlights are on, the amber lights are a “normal “ brightness, not over powering at all. When you lock the truck with the key fob or signal a turn… holy cow, you can see those things a mile away. Very bright, but I don’t believe it crosses the line on being too bright. It’s dancing right next to that line for sure.

which one did you order for amber only?

To get the amber signal lights, rather than the switch backs, get the ones they say are for the Lariat.

I must have gotten a couple of duds because they didn’t work on my xL. Both bulbs. Strange. Plugged in my switch backs and they worked .

Did you try reversing the bulbs? They only work in one orientation.
