It comes with the resistors so it will not throw a tail-lamp out light. The lights look great. Lexus should have made these tails for the LS430 in the 1st place.

I don't think anyone on here are crazy enough to go beyond $1,000 for some brand name taillights(More power to you if you can). Sad thing is that some of these brand name taillights might or are probably leaving the same production line as these so-called ebay parts. They are mostly made in Taiwan or China, too. BTW all parts on my car are authentic except for taillights, of course.

Actually those Ebay LED tail lights for the LS430 are very nice, especially for the price. You would think they were OEM lights when you are behind the car.

^^ Ive seen the ones off of ebay. The color doesnt match the stock red ones. All LEDs are installed very poorly, looks as if they will move around or even break if you hit a pothole or speedbump too fast. The color of the lights when lit up are very pink, not red. The ones my friend got, started leaking 2 days after he got them. I personally have an 04' trunk conversion and know these are nowhere near the oem lexus led tails. I know we are not all ballers on here and can afford such things. So I will say for the price they are not bad at all. Just needs to be resealed and they should last for a while.
