Here's my LED taillights installed

I wanted to go w/the factory look on my taillights, so I ordered the red (stock look)

Overall, its very easy install- takes about 10 mins each side...that's including time to take off the factory ones.

I also had to use the resistors ...as when I didn't have them, the blinkers were blinking way too fast.

The install on the lights was a simple "pull out the factory bulbs...(except the reverse bulb) and plug in the new LED wires directly to the wire(s).

The only gripe that I noticed was that when you have your turn signals on, the rear bumper light isn't synchronized w/the led blinker- it seems like it's almost synched, but it's off and on.

I wish there was a LED (factory look) rear bumper lights to make the look uniformed.

Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase.

This pic is before.....

Here's the NEW lights

After w/the new lights-
95% satisified...would be 100% if the timing of the blinking synched up w/the rear bumper lights...like the factory ones...

but oh well.

lights not turned on (LED Taillights)

here's the look w/o it turned on.

I also noticed the blinker was off a bit, it is consistant at least, stays that way the whole cycle, meaning doesn't get to the point where it overpasses the taillight, so it doesn't bug me,.. gives the person behind me at the stop light something to look at other than the trash and dead leaves on the street... I really don't like it here...
