Default Carson Tuned LED Taillights

Any insight on these LED taillights? L-Tuned is currently having a sale on them and I thought I'd do some research before I made a purchase. What do you think of them? HELP!

It's available in abundance on Ebay. You just have to beware to deal with someone with a good feedback both on Ebay and CL. There have been posts on LED EBay vendor service. You just need to search and do your homework.

I like the ones in the first link but I dont think thats a special price or anything like that. 350 seems a bit high for LED tails actually.

I know I am going against the majority of the people here....but I actually like the OEM tails. I say spend your money on something else.

I have a silver car as well. I like your wheels. Not tacky at all. Pimped out but not too much. Thumbs up dude.
