Just saw these in person at Carson Toyota...

I have to say, I really like them. The finish of the plastic lens is glossy and smooth, and they even have that tiny channel molded in between the red & white areas (you can feel it with your fingernail), just like the OE lights do. They even come with the wire harness and the turn signal bulbs are the cool mirror-finish versions that don't appear yellow when you're looking at the lens, but they'll light up yellow.

Can't wait to see them in action!

Hey Steve, will these lights give a blown taillight bulb warning on dash like TLW mentioned in his thread? And any change of making these lights WITHOUT the LEDs with the clear bottom?

From what I understand. Only the Brake light is LED. The turn signal blinker bulbs and reverse bulbs are standard bulbs.

What I'm concerned about is the life or tolerances of the LED, and what kind of warranty I'm gona get for a set of $600 taillights. I know these are probably high quality units, not like the APC ones that burn out in a month. Still, in every car there are voltage spikes and thats something LED's don't like.
