Default Someone with LED tails, i need your help/advice..

I finally decided to get myself LED tails.. But here is the problem, I really like the ones with thinner signals, the ones not made Sonar. However, those don't come with the inners unfortunately. So, I will have to get them seperately. I'm sure that the LEDs are different in both, since they were made by different companies.

My question is this, If I'll get tail lights with thinner signals and inners made by Sonar, will that look bad ? or there won't be any difference at all ?

Thanks

If it was a (4pcs) set, then most likely its by Sonar. Sonar tails are slightly different from the ones I want to get.

Someone here must have bought those seperately, c-mon people.....And if you have pics, that would be awesome.

Thank you in advance

I think it will look a bit goofy if you mix and match. However, it's still not as bad as if you have LED outers and still run the stock bulb inners.

I've seen the thinner signal portion with inner and outters on eBay.

I have the LED tail lights that your talking about, and I don't think it would look good to have those inner LED's with this set. The reason being that the inner LED's are much bigger that the LED's in the outer tail lights. I'm waiting out the market until something comes along. If I were you I'd do the same and not rush into anything
