Default Ijdmtoy led reflector

I been wanted the led reflector for so long. Finally bought one from IJDMTOY. The cost is way cheaper then the JDM VERSION. IJDMTOY listed on their website for 71 buck plus shipping. For anyone out there, who is interesting in getting one. Buy from their eBay listing which is cheaper and FREE Shipping.

Let know what you guy think... This led is so bright.

here is the link for the led reflector.

How's the install? Hard? Do you have it wired to your brake likes fully or just driving lights?

Wiring should be fairly easy.

Should be wired to the brake lights IMO. In Europe they use lower lights to avoid crashing in the fog.

I connected into my brake light.. Is on the whole time, but wen i drive and hit the brake, the led light went off. Hope someone can help me rewire the connector. I want it to stay on all the time with the brake.. Maybe i connected to the wrong 12v.. I will try it again when getting home today.. but installing the led reflector is fairly easy.. look up the bumper " how to remove the bumper on the forum " then from there you can connector the wire to the desire brake light. the IJDM LED REFLECTOR wire is fairly long enough for me, so there no need for extension.

Nice! I'm glad that there is some interest with this product, we were afraid that this wasn't going to be that popular. If you guys have any questions regarding wiring, shoot me a PM and I'll do my best to help.

Did you try wiring it to the 'corner' bulb on the tail lights?

Question would it be possible to wire these up to rear turn signals?

Yeah - that one. This way the reflector stays on whenever your tail lights are on, regardless if you are braking or not. However they won't turn brighter when braking. If i were to do this mod that would most likely be the route i take

like this mod... Do you have to take to back bumper off or can you run the wire without taking it off?

The rear bumper will most likely have to come on as the reflector is held on by a screw
