Stealing Tail Lights

[ValenciaOrange]

My neighbor told me the other day, they were stealing Ford F-150 tail lights in our neighborhood. I looked at the tail lights in the Maverick, and you have to open the tailgate in order to remove the screws to remove the taillight.

Now, every truck owner on our block is backing in their truck, and parking as close to their garage door as possible.

Uhhhh....

I just park INSIDE the garage

Probably the reason for that is the price of LED tail lights with BLISS. Same was with Ranger XLT/Lariat tail lights. Maverick uses regular lamps and probably doesn't cost 1200-1500 per side

F150 Trail lights are reportedly $5,900/Each.....so that makes them attractive to a thief.

If you're referring to that ragebait video it was $5600 total for two taillights, wiring harness, and rush locate fees.

When I was researching the expected repair parts for my 2024 XL, all I saw on Rockauto were headlights at $1,095 minimum each. WTH? I found replacements on Am+++n for $325 a pair. Working great. The ones in the XL had no lens damage, but the mounting parts were a jigsaw puzzle I didn't want to do. Now tail lights? $300 - $400 on RA.
