Just like windshield wipers and seatbelts, the lights on a vehicle are one of those things that truck owners take for granted until they perform inadequately. As you know, the lights on your truck can be just as important for saving your life as wiper blades and seatbelts. Since most OEM light bulbs get dull after a year of use or burn out without notice, many enthusiasts turn to the aftermarket to increase visibility while driving.
Recon Lights, one of the most well known names in the aftermarket, has been designing lights specifically for trucks and SUVs for years. For most truck owners, it’s the single most overlooked modification that enthusiasts forget to install. A quality set of aftermarket bulbs can add a custom look to your truck while making driving at night a much safer experience
In fact, many enthusiasts install project or LED light bulbs without even thinking of how much greater their visibility will be, they just want the popular look of High Intensity Discharge-styled bulbs.
