LED Bulb Replacement

[Boyk1182]

I switched all of the lights I could find on my last truck, a Tacoma, and it took a while and wasn’t cheap. I now have a 2023 F-150 Platinum and was pretty happy to see that it already had LEDs. Then I saw the license plate lights, which weren’t, so I replaced them. I was wondering if there are any other non-LED lights on this truck? I can’t seem to find any but I may be missing some.

I think your Plat is all-LED where it matters. My XLT had a number of halogen turn signal/brake light bulbs which has taken a fair amount of effort to find something better, but all of your signal lighting is via integrated LED assemblies.

Yes, those license plate bulbs are not meant for that socket. They will melt. I just replaced mine (again) this weekend with more cheap Chinese LEDs.

3rd brake light? Those were always the first to swap for me and then the plate lights. Then again, I've never had a Plat.

Did the same on my Plat. Amazing how Ford can overlook license plate lights when they were like a $9.00 for a 12 pack or something like that.

I'd like to find brighter (Lumens) puddle lights for the truck and still hoping someone finds the Forscan code to keep them on after 5mph...

Thanks for the replies. I am mainly looking for the obvious ones, maybe someday I’ll see what’s in the housings but I’m not really looking forward to that. The license plate lights are the only ones I noticed that weren’t LEDs already.

I’m curious about the 3rd brake light as well. I’ve already replaced the plate lights. Check the length of your replacements. I originally bought ones that were too long.

I saw this, not sure if I’d get it, but it’s an option.
