Does anyone know if they make a tail light with amber turn signals for the 2024 F-150? I have a 2024 raptor and I think amber turn signals are better and just looks higher quality.

Ford will have an OEM one for export markets. Amber rear turn signals are required in most ROW markets for the safety advantage they possess.

Seconding the safety aspect of this, and bringing receipts to back it up. I remember doing a case study on this for my MBA and thought it was ludicrous that amber turn signals haven’t been mandated in the US, and in Ford’s case they reserve the amber turn signal taillights for the higher trim packages.

21 Lariats have the amber turn signals. Would not be surprised if it carried over into some higher trim level on the 24s forward.

No 2024 F-150 has them for the NA market - it costs money and Ford is trying to save every dollar it can. (the aggressive decontenting of the trucks/every vehicle in the lineup) Most of the Ford lineup that had ambers have had them removed with the MCE, Escape, Explorer, F-Series. It isn't just a Ford thing, GM, Toyota (not Lexus), Kia and Hyundai have been removing them as well. NHTAS was going to use them as part of the 5 star scoring but decided not to include them in the latest update. Manufactures see a cost savings so they drop them.

21-23 Non-BLIS equipped F-150 had amber incandescent bulbs, and Lariat with LEDs also have them. STX/XLT with BLIS had combo Brake and Tail all incandescent red.

Now I'm curious... I'm pretty sure my '21 Platinum has amber turn signals in the rear.

It did.
all 21-23 F150's with the LED tail lights MINUS the Raptors had Amber turn signals.
the 2024 F150's with LED tail lights do not.

I swapped from my 22 LEDs to the 24's and the more and more i see 21-23's on the road it reminds me that i hate red turns or brake lights as the turn signals that Ford has gone to.
