Default JP led tails ?

I was checking out JP site and i saw Led tails for our gs for around 500 and some changes...it looks like the same led tails floating around ebay but the led of the jp ones seem to flow better..now is that made by jP or no? if they did make it atleast make it like the original jp tails




are these worth it over the led floating on ebay ? any1 purchase these from jp ?

E-Bay tails will save you a couple of $$$ so it all depends on you...Plus the E-Bay tails also have the smaller clear lens

I thought the Sonar ones have big clear signals, but these gives it a run for it's money.

Sonar makes both of them which are identical. They then sell it to JP so if purchase it from them at premium, you get to say, "No, these aren't the Ebay ones. I bought these from JP."

The only taillight that is worht the money from JP is the 01 clear,red. The 98 clear red you can do your self at home or get them on ebay for 100.00 bucks or so. The Led you can find on ebay for much less. The 01 tail light from JP is the only one you won't find online, on ebay and you can't do yourself so its the only worth the JP price. If you like the other two set of tails get them from carson,ebay.
