LED Puddle Light

[Truck2019]

Hello,

Has anyone found an alternative to this one?

I think they look great but reading the reviews it sounds like you have about a 50/50 chance of them burning out in less than a year. With them being that cheap it's not a huge deal, but I'd just rather "do it right" the first time if there are alternatives. Wondering if there will be a Ford part for this on the 2020's.

They all look like the same product design with different company names on Amazon.
Buy and install and change to OEM part if ever available.

I have them and they work well.

I bought those in March and with as easy of an install and the price I'm not worried if I have to replace. They look great!

Two questions for you:

1. Are these the ones you ordered? https://www.amazon.com/ROVER-Side-Mirror-Puddle-Light/dp/B07NYPLJ8C
2. Do they directly plug in? The other ones I saw required some wiring adjustments.

They look pretty good if that is the one you got - the box looks the same.

Thanks for confirming.

I ordered one today - should be here tomorrow. I wasn't originally going to change these out, but the stock ones are pretty dim, and for $18, you can't really go wrong. I still don't understand why the Lariat (or any of the trim levels) still have non LED lighting. Seems like a no brainer in 2019.

I agree I was upset when I saw that even the license plate lights cheap little led upgrade that could have been done. Hope you enjoy it man gives it a more premium/modern look

Ford goes cheap on the XLT with no trim ring in the key ignition area and no engine cover. I guess Ford couldn't add push button start on a $40K XLT too. Do you really think Ford would spend the few bucks to go LED in the puddles and license plate bulbs?

That trim ring on the ignition just amazes me. The LED stuff would have been cheap, but not as cheap as a stupid trim ring. That one in particular is just stupid, IMO.

Well mine is a lariat I have LED lighting they just got cheap on some lights not being LED. I would have liked a LED gauge like the Mustangs / Explorer.

 

[Truck2019]

Thanks for all the insight. I just swapped out the license plate lights and awaiting the arrival of the LED puddle lights.

 

[treimche]

Can I just replace the puddle light bulb with an LED bulb? Or is it the whole light assembly that needs to be changed? Haven't messed with it yet.
