I dont plan to do this only because I like the silver contrast on my lights in the reverse light area, however this is for the naysayers. Ford offered a black appearance package for 2023. The reflective part of the taillights on this package is black plastic. The lenses are the same red plastic...
Since your not darkening the red plastic itself, if you have LED high bright taillight bulbs, I don't see why it would affect it too much. Yes the silver reflective would be missing, however I bet on the Black Appearance Package the reflector area is black. Ford wont tint the lenses themselves...
Thanks for the kudos. I bailed out on the paint idea, decided on bonding on aircraft cockpit vinyl. This does not scratch very easily, and cleans easily.
I didnt know how to link before 3 or 4 days ago. I dont wsnt to go back through all these things to post the links. Needless to say they should be easy enough to search on amazon and ebay if currently available. .
I decided on the textured grey cockpit Vinyl. It uses a waterbased adhesive that's heat activated. I still have 1 more end divider to do at break time. But in my opinion, these look great.
Good idea. Quick and easy. I am mounting this high enough though that it floods the compartment with light. I need the red for night vision, and of course white light for regular when I'm just rummaging thru there. I dont want to deal with batteries. I like the dual on /off switches. I was also...
Found one on Amazon. High bright LED for a side by side off roader. It has 2 switches. One for white light, one for red light. It's on order. Once its here I can fab a mount bracket. I made a template, but will probably change that idea a little once the light shows up. With a small LED flash...
I am also working on a way to put lighting for the under seat storage. I have seen others put lights in the compartment itself, but when you have a lot of stuff, and dividers in there it can block some of the light. So far I am working the idea in my head, but I am thinking a decent gage steel...
Here ya go.
Are you planning on returning them? I might be interested in them for my other car.

Looking at a borla rear exit exhaust. This will take the pipe away from that L/H rear fenderwell. I can then make one out of black Lexan plastic I have at the house.
I hear ya on that one Dad. I'm renovating a bathroom in my home. In the middle of sheetrock install. Then I have to do a tub up tile job on it. I fit these little maverick mods and other home jobs in between. I work eight days straight @ 10 hours per day at my job to get 6 days off. As such I'm...
