Default Eagle Eye vs CG LED Tail Lamps

Has anyone ordered the CG LED Tail Lamps from ebay (for 2009)? I'm debating getting them since the Eagle sellers don't seem to want to respond to my messages. The CG seller said that the LEDs are replaceable too. What's holding me back is the fact that they are 30% more than the Eagle ones. Any opinions would be great!

Do you have a link?

I was personally never a fan of the ebay tails... I don't like the way the LEDs look when lit up.

If all you are looking for is the clear corner - you can get ISF tails

Cheapest route, red it out,
Best route: IS-F tails in my book.
Well it depends on what you like.

I definitely prefer the ebay led over the isf look.

I had the Eagle Eyes and I loved the led's. I don't know about the other brand and the other guy was asking for a link for the new brand you were talking about. I say just pay the money.

Ooh whoops

CG: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-CG-06-09...36d8db&vxp=mtr

Eagle: http://www.ebay.com/itm/06-07-09-LEX...6e78ec&vxp=mtr

Do you pay mean for the CG model? The only difference I can tell is the replaceable LED lights.

They look identical to me. I don't know, it's up to you. I do know that CarID is a reputable seller though

Yeah, they definitely have the customer support aspect down. I just asked for details on replacing the LEDs and they dont seem to have any documentation on that. It really just seems like they're identical products made by 2 different companies so I may just go down the cheaper route since people have been happy with the eagle eye brand.
