I ordered a set.. Shipping from Hong Kong, I've already gotten a tracking number.. I'll be bringing my car out towards the end of April so if the lights arrive before then great, if not I know they're on the way haha

Mine got shipped as well but I haven't been updated on the status of it for a week now. Did you receive a China Post tracking number as well?

Yes I received a china post tracking number.. it updated a few times but it is very vague to say the least..

Good news though.. My lights showed up yesterday!! According to documentation, the lights were air shipping into Vancouver and then shipped from there once they cleared customs.. The seller put a lower cost on the invoice as well so I didn't pay any duty.. Everything looks good I'm most likely gonna toss them on the car this weekend..

Quality seems real good.. the lights appear to be sealed nicely around the edges.. I might add a bit of silicone to them before I install them but thats just my preference. The L shaped light bar has a reflective material inside the housing that I assume helps the light dissipate across the entire length of it.. I can see 4 LED's for the reverse lights. There are 3 LED's along the side of the outside tail light.. Looks like 4 LED's for the turn signal as well

Nice Sean! I messaged Vland about the status of them and he gave me a Canada Post tracking link. I was looking at that damn China Post link forever lol

And those look really clean S2k. Wish they offered a black housing and red bares like 78works, but they look clean either way.

I'm currently waiting for mine to arrive from China, but for those who already have them: What's inside the bulb holders on the back of the lights? I'm aware that these are LED tail lights, but are they simply just LED bulbs inside the bulb holders? Or does the brake light section use a regular bulb to distribute the light better? Been curious since I saw a photo of the back of them with numerous bulb holders like a regular tail light.

I have them and they look just like OEM sockets. Inside is the wiring and resistors, no bulbs to change as they are full LED.

Are these the smoked ones? Looks really good on your colour, it all flows and blends in. Is the bulge that noticeable on the sides? Looks huge in the pic but i know in person it can look very different
