Unboxing.


Outside light on. The red on the tail lights are Crimson Red, just exactly like the new IS tail lights. Really nice touch.


Lights installed. The fitment is pretty darn good. No **** ups. GOOD QUALITY. It look unaligned since my trunk was open.


Testing them out. The pictures do not do it justice. For some reason the light color looks off, it seems more orange when you take pictures of them. But in person it flows perfectly well. The bars are true red with out any fade away of color. Signals are LED and when you brake the secondary LED's turn which are in between of the LED strips.

Which tail lights are these? I've seen the ones from Nigel but those have the clear turn signal and not completely redded out like these? Could you guys post a link please? I would greatly appreciate it

That's good because sometimes LED's against sunlight will be hard to notice

Will these fit a 2009+ or could you use some kind of wiring harness to mod them?
And is it possible to get red lights with white bars shown in the top left pic below (similar to 78works)?

Been looking around for these too. Problem is finding one that will fit the 2009-2012 Models.

I'm also interested in finding out if these would work on a 2009. Is it because the wiring harness is different?
