I feel the same as you. At first i was really impressed how good and oem-ish those look, but the second set of pictures posted by the OP got me thinking about how out of place those reverse lights look, and at this point it's the only reason i will not be getting a set.

Looks like the extra wire could be for the rear fog light that JDM / EURO spec cars have.

Raj you are spot on... got a response yesterday and that's exactly what it's for.

I will be honest and say that I also feel the same about the reverse section. I didn't at first but once it was pointed out I kept looking at it. Soooo thanks for keeping it real lol.

I'm going to use a red overlay for that but leave the turn signal clear. I used red overlay on me oem reverse and it still lit up fine at night.

now for those un-used rear fog lights... I could tap the brake line or relay a turn signal? Wonder how hard it would be to run a sequence turn signal here...

Default Mine finally arrived.

It took about 3 weeks from paying to getting them to my doorstep but it was well worth it. The black border blends well with a darker car for sure. Had the OEM look that I was looking for which is a big for me.

Definitely the best looking out of all the versions made. I like these since they're pretty close to an OEM look. If only the clear part on the outer tail light was slightly smaller. Could be a easy fix with red vinyl. I also liked the one with the white led tubes at first too but it also looked kinda rice.

Mike just curious though how does that red housing compare to oem though? I had the eagle eye led tails on my 07 and after I compared it to my oem that red housing just looked really cheap. Just curious if the housing on this is similar to the eagle eyes?

I have red overlay for the reverse lights just haven't put it on yet. The red housing parts are pretty much spot on oem color if you go with option A. The quality of their products is again the reas on why I went with this set. I was very please with the little details of the housing plastics. Still haven't done anything with the rear fog light section but it's nice to have that extra option that the other sets don't have. If you have a darker color car I would give B a shot. I kinda wish I went with B just cause my car is darker but I still love my set over what I had.
