    anyone have pictures of the poor fitment? I bought these because I feel like they look the best. Love the way it looks but hate the way it fits. going to seal it somehow...maybe a custom rubber gasket

    Glad I came across this thread. These lights look great in pics, but apparently their quality and customer service are both a nightmare.

    The Autosaver brand is identical and doesn’t have the same issues.

    Yeah I came across those too. Do you have some pics of yours? There aren't any great ones ok Amazon. On truck, I mean. There are a few on there, but they're too close up to really get a good feel how they look on the truck.

    Sorry about the delay.

    Some gap on the light, but nothing I couldn’t live with. I don’t remember how snug the stock ones fit. I’ve had these in about a year and a half.

    I really like them, just afraid to buy them and then have issues.

    None at all. I have no complaints with these. I think they look better than all of the other options, so I was willing to accept the very slight gap. Like I said, I don’t remember how snug the stock ones were.

    I ordered the Winjets first, and they were so off that I couldn’t even get them bolted in. Either Winjet is a knock off of these, or Autosaver copied theirs and improved it. Either way, these are much better. Even the plastic on them is clearly of better quality.

    The reverse light is a standard bulb, so I replaced that with LED bulbs. Other than that, no issues.

    If you look on Amazon, the Autosaver has much better reviews than the Winjet, and they’re cheaper. I can’t guarantee anything obviously, but I’ve had mine in since September of 17, and zero issues.

    Cool, I thought they were Winjets until I just read your last post.

    I didn’t catch that. I searched “Autosaver88 Tundra LED Tail light”, and these two sites come up. Neither explicitly states that they are the Autosaver brand, so you would probably need to verify they aren’t Winjets.

    https://www.cjponyparts.com/led-tai...MIs8WX9qeY4AIV8pFbCh0g1w8eEAkYASABEgJVefD_BwE

    https://www.mytoytruck.com/products...-red-tail-lamps-assembly-check-fitments-below

    I wonder if there was a legal issue between the two companies, and Autosaver had to stop producing them. (Possibly because of this thread?)

    I can’t find a website for Autosaver88. Just their Amazon and eBay stores. Weird.

    Jim, I was looking at these on Amazon again. Their used option says it comes in original packaging, but packaging may be damaged. They are shipped and fulfilled by Amazon, and give you a 30 day return.

    Looks like they may be new, but with damaged packaging. It says instructions are included. With a 30 day return you can send them right back if they’re not up to snuff. Not too much risk if you wanted to try them.

    @Jim LE 1301 I have not checked your build lately and don't remember. Did you change your tail lights? If so, to what?

    Still have the OEM ones. Had a friend mix some black and clear paint and sprayed them. You can't tell unless you have an original light next to it.
