[QUOTE="EricM, post: 1094631, member: 20286"] Why not fix the OEM LEDs if you say it's no big deal for you to replace LEDs and reseal? Technically, you need the three red running lights to meet DOT requirements, being over 80" wide and all. What you could do is pick up a three led center light for a boat trailer (simliar to [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000N8QP26/?tag=fordraptorforum-20']this[/URL]) and mount it to the bed under the tailgate/above the bumper. Tap into your running lights and you then are still legal and can run the non-Raptor third brake light. That's how dually trucks have their lights setup from the factory typically (also over 80" wide). I don't see why it'd throw any codes, I doubt the truck's BCM can discern if those 3 LEDs are there or not. Try unplugging it altogether and running around a bit without it to test. [/QUOTE]
