BNeons or LED's either will work ... You don't say regular or extended cab ... The Neons are longer then the leds , so measure out the sides and see what fits better ...
I sometimes install two kits on longer trucks or one kit and a wheel well kit to fill in the sides/corners |

Since it's a white truck you can do anything. Just go with your favorite color or if you're going LED then just get a multi-color

Kind of a bad question to ask on a streetglow site
 I've installed several sets for others I won't say I was overly impressed with quality or brightness of them ... I think they are an off shoot of LED GLOW ... (tubes ect were similar) and they drew water into the tubes which is a bad thing |

I just don't understand...in order to save a few bucks, why do people waste money on cheap crap?!?! Sure SG costs more than some of the knockoffs...but isn't the peace of mind knowing you bought quality that the company will stand behind worth the extra few bucks...I just don't get it!!!!
The best is that 3 million color UB LED kit on flea bay...for $39!! (or some absurd crap like that) looks like you got 10 midgets under yourcar holding keychain flashlights --------------------  |
