One more question if you could help:

In all pics the 18' lights appear more orangish. How do they compare in real life to the red 15'-17' LED lights?

I know you don't want to hear this, but I would suggest going to your local dealer and looking at the 2018 tail lights in person rather than making a decision based on photos or someone's personal opinion.

I have been planning to stop by a dealership near me to see them up close in person (as well as looking out for 18' trucks on the roads).

My primary interest in these 18' lights is the better rear visibility at night. You said they do have better visibility, and I was hoping you would have more info on that (ex. others have given you feedback that your truck is easier to see from behind, you've noticed that in inclement weather the tail lights are much more visible, etc). Unfortunately I can't see how these look after dark by going to a dealership.

The other asks about the red/orange color and shape were out of curiosity. Thanks for confirming that this swap works.

It's the way it photographs

My tailgate LED strip is the same color
They are both RED in real life to just look orange in Photos

So I bought some 2018 LEDs for my ‘16 Platinum. I need to get the ‘18 modules, so does that mean I buy two of the modules (same part number) and then one right bracket and one left?

Thanks!

Yes, however I don't believe anyone has installed 2018 BLIS modules in a 2015-17 and successfully used the original As Built data. Perhaps someone else could chime in and confirm.

PS: the 2018 BLIS As Built data is very different than the 2015-17.
