Installed Putco Luminix LED Tailgate Emblem

[HSV_MIkeJ]

Added emblem today and connected it to the brake lights, didn’t really want it on all the time. It is very bright. Setup my phone to record , just to make sure it didn't come on with the blinkers too. I Will be adding the front grill version soon.

Looks great! Did you end up installing the front emblem as well?

I have the front emblem, just haven't installed it yet, it takes much longer to install, might do it in the next few weeks.

Since I posted, I also got a front emblem. I installed it in less than an hour - no joke. I have the Lariat factory grill and there was plenty of space with my medium-sized hand to just reach through the grill with a ratchet, remove the stock emblem, and put on the Putco. That part took maybe ten minutes. I spent the rest of the time fishing the wire and hiding it. Turned out great, has been working for a few weeks now.

I watched the install videos and was ready to do the long install process and remove all that stuff. No need! Just see if you can get your hand back there.

Will have to try that too, but I have larger hands.

Can you get that is blue? and where did you order it from? Please and thank you!! Enjoy the week!!

I ordered mine from eBay. Amazon had a similar price. The front emblem is gray plastic, but it really does look blue when illuminated.

Does your truck have the camera in the grill badge? Mine does and not sure I could get the camera and camera washer port installed reaching down into the grill.
