Another ZEP taillight mod!

[jcs]

The BAP tail lights are starting to show up on eBay for around $260 for a pair. By the time you buy the zep, distilled water, denatured alcohol, four red LED brake/signal, two white projector LEDs ... It's getting closer to be a wash.

I saw the eBay ones but Im holding up on those as well, I would like to see a review of them, you know, fitment and quality stuff but at ~$260 a pair it is pretty tempting .

I purchased the LasFit for 2022-2025 Ford Maverick LED Bulbs Exterior Lights. A complete LED upgrade for my Maverick.

Quick question I am looking at doing the same thing. Do you happen to know if all the led light replacements are plug and play or not?

Yes, I have replace the Front Turn signals (T3-4257A) and Front Marker lights (L-T10A). I had to stop as it started to rain. Big difference!

I've been debating whether or not I do this on my truck. My main concern is that they will be dimmer. Could you post a picture with the brake lights on? Also, did you change the bulbs? Thanks!

I haven't done the TBL yet but this is what they look like at night in the driveway. Still look pretty bright to me.

Ohh nice!!! That's plenty bright. Thanks.

No problem! I'll probably end up doing the TBL next week/weekend sometime. Then I think the next thing I'm doing is buying a hyperdip kit for the emblems. Trying to decide if I want to take the emblems apart in pieces and do a more intricate job or just cover them in the same coat.

The light showing up in the dark is not a real concern. It is them showing up in daylight. Yesterday I was out driving with a new driver prepping to take his test. I had to tell him the car ahead was stopped at the light even though it was green because they had altered the taillights on the Civic and barely could tell the brakes were on until we were almost on his bumper. That is my concern that a young, new drive, who is aware enough to look for the diminished light would rear end me. Hopefully the LEDs help in daylight also.

I'll get a daytime vid. I appreciate your care for safety. While I'm not excusing that they may not be as bright as a stock modern headlight, they are definitely still brighter than what we grew up with.

Alaska has a lot of daylight in the summer.

I found out my 2025 Ford Maverick Lariat has LED Brake lights.

LED Brake lights are standard on the 2025 Ford Maverick High series.
