I'd put them on a show car that was powered up at a show, but honestly probably would laugh at any street car I saw rocking those. Kinda like new age neon-glow windshield squirter nozzles.

If you like 'em though, that's all that really matters, go for it

Hahahaha. They do look sick. It's something that i haven't seen yet. i wouldn't have it on my car though. Its like the altezza taillights when they first came out. Everyone would be jocking on it and now... it's lame... lol
like i said, they do look like when your driving down the strip of vegas. all the flashing lights... I'm pretty sure it cost an arm and a leg for them.

I think it is neat. I personally wouldn't go all out with the flashing sequences.

But from a safety standpoint they are brighter than traditional bulbs. I like the 'wave' on the turn signal part, that looks cool. But the rest is overkill, i would keep it simply. wave on the signals and on/off for the remaining lights.

Garbage has the Insurance Tails with the bottom "clear" part modded with those amber LED's for turn signals. I believe it costs like $200 or less to get the bottom part modded with those amber led's. I just lost the site that I found that does them

the "flash" sequences you see arent a constant sequence that you see. What you see flashing is the the turn signal scrolling to the side you are turning. as for the red sequences, I think they are like what a lot of motorcycles have, as you slow down the more of the brake light that shows, but that part is a guess, but the ambers are for sure cause I've seen a few cars with them in town. If they turn left, the left light scrolls to the left and visa versa for the right. When the hazard light are on, they scroll to both sides
