wow....let me tell u something guys, bill from V-led emailed me back already said even after a year he will take care of this. amazing customer service, granted i have spent about 1k with them but even then most people wont warranty something a year afterwards

BTW guys this tag is well worth the 69.99 for it. i will take some new shots of my camera with it on and off when i get my new tag

Hey Sakataj(sorry forgot your real name), haven't been on CL lately, been busy with going back to school and working. I've always found V-LED's to have awesome service. Anyone expecting a mechanical/electrical part to be 100% perfect every time with tens of thousands being made, is unreasonable. Its all about how the company handles it when that one in 1000 pops up, and they do great work! I haven't had any noticeable issues with mine.

Pete/PHML: The before/after shots are the same shutterspeed its hard to find a setting on the camera for an actual before shot so you really just have to look at the contrast to see the difference. Because the before shots were "brighter" than normal too.

Taillights are spray tinted and clearcoated professionally.

I usually take the bezel off and dry it with a paper towel and put it back on.

Old thread. Great way to blind everyone behind you. Just hope you aren't reversing anywhere close to a cop.
