Nope still haven't figured anything out. I did get the 3rd brake light though and like it. I put a pic in my gallery. Now the taillights and headlights really stand out though.
I've found my eclipse covers too, but havent taken the time to see how they look. I had a terrible toothache all last weekend and ended up bieng in the dentists office Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon to get a root canal and temporary cap. I would go look now but it's storming like crazy. I'll have to set them by the front door so I remember them tomorrow.

One feature that I have been told to get is the individual replacable LED bulbs. That way if you diode goes out you can just replace it. The ones that are not, well you have to get a new pair of tailights.
I saw a set of the smoke ones on a F-150 a few days ago. The truck was parked so I did not get to see them working. As far as how they looked installed. The fit look good. The smoke is fairly dark. Darker than the pic looked. They were on a balck truck. I was thinking smoke until I saw those. I think I will stick with red smoked. Just enough of a difference to tell you something is new!

..........personnaly I want to see some pics of them on a truck and working. Oh also I guess they are made in china or something like that so thats another reason why I am not going to go buy them just yet.

Which ones did you see boxcar, the black smoked ones? Those are the ones I'm most interested in but they looked too chrome for my tastes in the picture. If they are more smoked than chrome I might have to find a set.
These are the ones I'm looking at.

I saw the smoked ones. They are not chromed by any means. They have a very classy refined look. I was impressed with the way they looked. Just a bit dark for my taste.
Very well done. Not that LOOK AT ME junk that you see.

Well, between powrstkn's experience with PDP and boxcar saying the smoked ones are darker than that picture I might have to try a set out.
Of course with a $1500 dental bill this week I should probably wait a while and at least see how my covers look
Dang this site gets me spending the money!

Yep I was saving up for a Buckstop bumper and line-x but they tooth kind of got in the way of those for a while. I might be able to come up with $200 though. Of course I still need to buy my remote start/alarm, headrest monitors, sound deadening, etc. etc. etc.
