Smoked LED Tails?

[tayl5645]

Anyone seen what any of these actually look like on our cars? I was thinking about getting a set of them. Ive blowin the same blinker twice in about 2 months and im pretty sure its from the extensive amount of moisture getting inside the housing. Most likely going to replace the headlights some time too but thought i should start with whats causing my problems :P thoughts and opinions are appreciated!

a) the LEDs burn out because they are cheap
b) the 'smoked' versions are not tinted nearly enough
c) they look good, i guess...cut open your stock tails and make your own awesome set

Ny problem with the stock ones is im leaking water and getting moisture causing the bulb to blow way too frequently... I got the longer lasting bulb (before I realized I was taking on moisture) and it lasted me a whole two months

Bio to your point. If I were to use a stock housing do you know anyone that has done it so I can see how a cusom look would be?

Those were actually the ones I was looking at! I would never spend $400 for that. Still very unsure of how it would look I dont think Ive seen anyone on the site with these

ive never seen anyone crack open an 04+ tail light. i have seen (and done it personally) the 97-03 cracked open. however, i can only assume that you can use the same concept and make it work.

forget getting new lights. If they're not cracked take them off the car and put an adhesive strip on the quarter around the taillamp housing so it fits in tight. no sense in getting new lights if they will just mount up the same as the old ones. have you been hit in the quarter?

Here are my LED tail lights:

No I havent been hit it just appears there is a really bad seal I keep getting a ton of moisture within the housing itself.

Dread are those custom or bought? they look pretty sick!

[DreadMcLaren]

Bought them from online.

Here's a different view:

[tayl5645]

Diggin them for sure! Im guessing those are the amber colored ones?

[DreadMcLaren]

No the lights a red. The pictures don't really do any justice to how they look. I have to say these are one of my favorite things I've bought for my car.

[tayl5645]

So those are the clear lens with red bulbs?

[DreadMcLaren]

No. It's a chrome housing with LED bulbs inside the housing and the lens is a smoked lens.

[tayl5645]

Very nice! that is the one I was looking at! Looks really sharp on for sure. Just not sure how it will look on my "grey" car

[MrPoopyButthole]

I have yet to have any LEDs burn out on mine. I bought mine at $200, I see they are down to $150 or so now

I went for the ALL Red cause I like an OEM look.

[tayl5645]

I did se yours drunkie. Overall I do think I like the looks of them. There are a ton of GPs around here it would be really nice to make my car stand out a little bit

[donmega]

u may have to replace the connector as well as the housing. just hate to hear you spend 4 bills for lights and u still have the problem

[tayl5645]

I completely appreciate the thought donmega. Im still looking into it. This is also slightly my excuse for spending money on my car :P. Not often do I have a reason to customize things haha
