Yeah, and you also have bullet holes in the rear back doors too!
I think I am going to order some in the next day or so. The lights of course, not the bullet holes .
I am going to take your word for it that they are bright and worth the money.

yep those are the taillights i've been drooling over for over a year. i just cant see spending the $300+ after shipping right now. i plan on going with the red ones though, keeping a semi-stock look but with the much brighter LEDs.
b-uno: the replacment 3157 LED bulbs are what i'm talking about. they dont putout IMO nearly enough. however the replacment lights(housing and all) do have much better output.

300$ for chinese tail lights, not very reassuring they will work long.

i had a bad experiance on ebay one time, i got these clear marker lights, put them in , then they would fog up all the time, and the chrome came off the insides of them, they were made in tiawan
the clear lenses also turned yellow after the following summer so they were gold looking.
