You don't need the buckets on those tails. The light assembly alone will work without the buckets and can be nearly flush mounted. You'd need to fill the tail light hole to mount them.

Like I said, I like the isee lights, my only concern is the plastic bracket. Warrior makes metal ones...I'm planning on one day putting Trucklite military tails on the JK

How well can you see them in bright daylight? One of the white tail lights' objectives is to indicate to other people/drivers you are going backwards.

Why don't you express your self to someone that would do some good: dougm@advancedvehiclesystems.com?
Have fun tearing your Jeep all to pieces on trees, rocks, roll overs, wrecks and such....

It seems that you are missing a whole point that I won't bother explaining to you. If you don't like them, don't buy. Simple as that.

Bright reverse lights are not needed in the bright of day, only in the dark of night. People see that they are lit and only the perfectly clueless can't see a vehicle backing out or would be focusing solely on reverse lights.

Your post reminds me of the old joke: A man goes to the doctor and says, "Doctor, I have broken my arm in 4 places!"
The doctor says, "Then stay out of those places!"
If you are having those concerns, then buy or cobble something you are comfortable with. You need to understand that there are all kinds of Jeepers that don't view their Wrangler or what ever Jeep they drive as something to take out on a trail to bang, roll, rip off the fenders or otherwise destroy.
To them it's a matter of dependable, rugged transportation, a daily driver. You need to respect that.

To the OP, I recently saw these lights this week on a Jeep here in N.J., they are made out of a Polycarbonate plastic so they are "durable". I would not want to hit them against some inanimate object and personally you would just be buying them for the look, the design of the lights does not seem thought out correctly to me and the company probably needs to recuperate their R&D for this light. I would have integrated the reverse lights under the signal light in place of the infrared lights because civilians are not going to ever need those lights unless your buddy has night vision goggles. I also thought that the military light was an actual bucket light, but upon further inspection there was just a metal plate blocking a hole on the back side of the light, and an actual bucket light would be nice for this price range which is $550, and if you think about it you are very close in price with the Genright Corners that have a recessed light, not saying that recessed is the way to go unless you do a lot of tight trails. I just changed mine with a recessed tail light, but that was my preference due crawling tight trails in upstate NY. Personally I think if you want a nice LED that is low profile I would go with the Metal Cloak.

Actually we do have these on a lot of our bigger vehicles. Pretty much identicle except for the square housing with the two reverse lights.

Actually the Black out marker/brake lights are not IR. They are visible without NVGs. This technology dates back to WWII. Its interesting that they only have the rear lights. There is no mention of the front light assy and the Blackout drive lamp. I have the real LED lights on my Trailer and even wired up the "cat eyes" to work on a separate switch even the brake light(the small light on the bottom) works. Not sure what the manufacturer was talking about classified stuff was left out of the replicas. There is nothing secret about these lights. They are NOT DOT approved. The lens does not reflect like civilian models. On my JK, I was originally going to retro fit these led lights(they work with a 12V system), but that was too much trouble. I can still add the Black out feature to the jeep using a CUCV/M880 Blackout light kit. Not sure why I need to drive around in the dark though. Maybe it will make a great conversation piece. And I'm bored
