I like the four red lights. But I still need my back up lights too. So, IMO if you can do with out those, go for the four reds.

Yes, 4 look best & should be functional.
Both yours & Boog's w/ 4 look great.

I changed to 4 stock tail lights a long time ago.

The lenses are flat, got them at a auto parts store 5" I believe, might have been $12. Just knocked the old ones out glued the new ones in, that's the short version anyway.
