Wow, that's a very large gap.
Yes, make sure that far corner is secured fully into the receiving tab on the car body.

The version I have with the amber leds are maybe marginally brighter but do stand out a little more.

Yes...the amber cost more because they are from Avest and the clear are from Spec-D. Both are made from the same manufacture. I couldn't justify the price difference.

FWIW, if you have the side view mirror LED turn signals like I installed, the issue is marginal as the mirror LED's are very bright and can be seen clearly

Default Feeling left out.... wah

Sure wish they'd make the Avest LED tail lights for a 2011 LS460L .....
I wrote Ming hoping he might have some good news.

I'm depressed now after seeing how GREAT everyone's lights are looking....

Informative thread guys!!

I have a 08' 460 L that I clipped the front end of my Explorer while backing out and busted the RR tail light. Looks like replacing with the LED Tail Lights would be cheaper and look better too! The 460 and 460 L are the exact same lights...correct?
