If you look at my garage you can see the ones I installed plus the third brake light. The look is stock. Appears Dodge1500 has the same type as mine where the led's wrap around the corner unlike the ones you are pondering.

I can't seem to find any exactly like yours. This is the closest I could find:

I like these because the look is still close to stock and they have four rows of LEDs compared to many of the others that only have 3. The rows are staggered so you can see the light from the side, and they have a couple of side-mounted LEDs, as well.

I believe there is a gasket included but not for certain. If you get hit from behind with these lights they are def blind.

Mine came with a 1/8" width foam seal around the perimeter of the light. Does not look as good as the full stock gasket, but I guess it will do the job.

Personally, I like the stock, just because i never bothered to look for anything aftermarket. I do like the first ones, they look stockish but definitely not ricey.
