Here's my LED taillights installed
I wanted to go w/the factory look on my taillights, so I ordered the red (stock look)
Overall, its very easy install- takes about 10 mins each side...that's including time to take off the factory ones.
I also had to use the resistors ...as when I didn't have them, the blinkers were blinking way too fast.
The install on the lights was a simple "pull out the factory bulbs...(except the reverse bulb) and plug in the new LED wires directly to the wire(s).
The only gripe that I noticed was that when you have your turn signals on, the rear bumper light isn't synchronized w/the led blinker- it seems like it's almost synched, but it's off and on.
I wish there was a LED (factory look) rear bumper lights to make the look uniformed.
Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase.
This pic is before.....

Here's the NEW lights
After w/the new lights-
95% satisified...would be 100% if the timing of the blinking synched up w/the rear bumper lights...like the factory ones...
but oh well.

ya, where the heck were you before I butchered my whole wiring assembly!..lol... Good to know though about the resistors as I almost took them off and rewired back to factory, lucky the cold, dreadry, rainy, snowy weather keeps me from working on my car for 8, maybe 10 months a year...
I also noticed the blinker was off a bit, it is consistant at least, stays that way the whole cycle, meaning doesn't get to the point where it overpasses the taillight, so it doesn't bug me,.. gives the person behind me at the stop light something to look at other than the trash and dead leaves on the street... I really don't like it here...

I did the night shades on the bottom bumper lights and i should not have clear coated them as they are too shiny compared to the bumper now. I also hate that silver bottom on the 08-09's, on the balck anyway...

I'm looking at getting the ones made by Eagle Eyes.
An eBay seller is selling them...just wondering how reliable these lights are....and other people's feedback .

Im using LED taillights on my ride and so far so good. It can provide you with bright lights. You can tell if you try them out.
