Every other truck has that led strip at the bottom of the tailgate, haven't personally seen anyone put one in the middle of the ones equipped with the multiflex tailgate. Always wanted to do this but my old T1 had the alternate one with the "Chevrolet" lettering. Idea is simple the strip goes in the middle, has turn signal functions and a running light. Hope one day someone will figure out one that's able to bend, is equipped with a reverse light, and a brake light. I tried first with the regular tailgate strips but those don't bend easy also light doesn't get through at all. This strip is meant for the hood thus shoots the LED light through the bottom, this allows me to slightly expose the strip on the bottom through the gap and let light shine brightly. You'd think it would look bad but after putting tint over it, it's hardly noticeable (maybe because my truck is that dark mineral grey). It's spliced to the running light on the 7 way trailer wire and the turn signals are spliced into the taillights. Love to hear some feedback I personally love it and I think it's unique, maybe a little "Ford-ish" I believe the new f150s come with a strip in the tailgate but hey people put side exits by the door on silverados and the Lighting definitely started that so here we are. Below are 3 links to YouTube videos on examples of the strip.
