Good news is the light still works so gonna get some red repair tape for the time being.

Backing up a cargo trailer up a tricky snow/ice covered short route. The trailer would not track the truck on the uphill turn without sufficient speed and would start to jack knife each time. Second to last attempt, ^%@&!!!!

Factory lamps are already LED.
Personally, I would buy another factory lamp and have both of them (your other one and the new one) painted with tinted clear by a local body shop. You have a ton of flexibility with the appearance.
Aftermarket lamps overall are junk.

I've had mixed results w/aftermarket lights. Dealer is $800 (each).

Make sure you are sitting down when you look up a headlamp.

I purchased my truck from another state and the delivery driver delivered it to me with a busted tail light along with bumper and bed scratches 
(they did pay to get everything fixed) The tail lights are crazy expensive so I looked around and found a perfect used one on eBay for $340.

I put some Recon smoked taillights on as soon as I got my truck. I’m happy with them so far.

I looked into these as well but didn't show anything rated for 2023 yet. Is yours a 2023? Love that look by the way.

No difference between a 22 and a 23. Just many websites haven't made the update to include 2023 models.
