Not me. I stand by my LED driving/running lights comment. I saw them on an F150 which prompted me to start the thread. Any car I've seen them installed on look cheap.

Maybe that would change my mind. The ones I've seen in person thus far have mainly looked like rope lights people have tacked behind their lenses. I'm sure you've seen your share of poorly done LEDs.

I agree, most cars and especially trucks go the cheap route and it ends up looking bad.

After being behind one of these tools this morning, I'll second this one. They also had the obligatory Broncos stickers on both sides of their rear window too. The only thing missing were the English block letters last name.
