PlasmaGlow Firestorm LED Tailgate Bar

Reviewed by Ian B (Bellefonte, PA) — Apr 21, 2013 6:04 PM

My list of complaints is so extensive it is hard to know where to begin. Perhaps most disappointing was the condition of the tailgate bar itself. The surface of this $150+ product was thoroughly scratched on both sides even though it had been bubble-wrapped. More generally, the tailgate bar looked as though it had been cheaply constructed. Once again, this was very disappointing for such a prestigious product. The instructions inside were cursory at best and left much to be desired.

If you are an electrical engineer and like wires running from front turn signals to the rear go for it!

These lights were much cheaper than other popular websites, so I went with AutoAnything, never used them before but shipping and packaging was fine. The installation was the only downfall, I did not have time to install them myself so my father did and said it was time consuming and a pain, and he's worked with cars all his life. Overall, the lights are awesome and not many people have seen these before so it's pretty cool, will definitely use AutoAnything again in the future.

Ordered the flat plug adapter with the bar. Required that the 7 wires from the adapter be crimped to the 7 wires from the light bar, That would of been fine except the 4 pin hitch adapter then required you to hard wire a 12 V line and hard wire the reverse light instead of supplying a 5 pin flat with reverse and pulling the 12 v from the tailight. Who cares if it lights up during the day. The really need to simplify the installation, I never could get it to work properly. The other problem is it came as 2 pieces with the wires coming out of both pieces and joined in the center. This means the wires show under the tail gate. Ended up ordering a PUTCO light bar. One piece construction with a 4 pin adapter that worked perfectly out of the box.
