Get some. They are much nicer than the stock lights. Plus they are brighter.Quote:

Clear coat guys. That's what it's for.
yeah thats the other secret, like 2-3 coats of clear and some wax to help protect it all
With LED tails being the theme of this thread, I'd like to point out that I need to tint my red ones. The comment of the day yesterday was "are those giant lady bugs on the back of your car?" I don't remember who said it though.
the red ones just seem too red to me
Buy em, tint em.
Trust me, they are too red, a few guys at the meet asked if I had lady bugs on the rear end of my car. :P
Sweet lights! I'm getting some!
Light output depends on the LED bulb and the quality. I have a/m LED tails on my jeep and they are twice as bright as the stock halogens. The LED headlights in exotic cars are like $100 a bulb and are eff'ing bright. One draw back with LED's as headlights is that they don't generate the heat to keep snow/ice melted off your lenses like regular halogens. That's a problem cities face when they use them in traffic lights. Snow/ice cakes over them and drivers can't see the lights anymore.
I have HID projectors on the grand prix and LED bulbs in the fogs. The fog bulbs are cheap ebay garbage that only give me the look I want but don't do crap for light output (with the HID's I don't really need it anyway). I found some better bulbs that I'll try once these ones go. I really want a set of these tails though - they're sick. I'll probably go with black housings and leave them untinted. I got a ticket yesterday for the tinted stock tails and they aren't even very dark. LED's FTW.

If you widen the mounting holes slightly they should fit fine. As I said, slightly is all they would need to sit in properly and it shouldn't disturb the way stock or other aftermarket tails fit.
Thanks for the tipQuote:
