Got mine from USA seller in Dayton NJ. I’d say an 8/10 for quality. The rubber gaskets need better glue and QA. Some superglue cloudy residue left behind from their attempt to stick gasket. Should be glued with a rubber cement not super glue.

Fitment is not 100% around edges but most people won’t notice or care.

Finally got mine - only took 4 days to come from China into Canada and onto my door step. That's insanely fast! I know that there is one or two videos already lingering around (i.e. KG) on how to install these lights, but here's another with a bit more detail for those who have never done it before. I do a bit of a boring unboxing lol, but hopefully this gives you an idea of what to expect.

Quality of the lights are satisfactory, I did find some foreign loose object in my tail light and also what appears to be hair line scratches or cracks in the middle of outer pieces. However, I've verified that they are most likely just part of the mold process since another forum member has similar issue. Not complaining for the price I paid for them!

Purchased my VLANDs from amazon and received in around three weeks. Very happy with fitment and condition of lights.

Check out my unboxing video if you are looking to get these. I have the links to the USA seller I bought from and a few others on eBay.

Hey Guys,

Not that it matters as I will figure it out one way or another (already bought a set of the smoked version for my SGM), but does anyone know if these include the rear fog light? It’s a MOT fail (vehicle check) for us Brits if not, so thinking I can re-task my LED rear bumper reflectors if needed.....

Just thought I’d ask as maybe it applies in some other places like Australia, New Zealand?

Don’t think I ever really use my fog lights, but rules are rules sadly!

Australia and New Zealand don't require rear fog lights by law. That's definitely a UK/EU thing. The Vland tail lights don't have a built-in rear fog light, but they do have bright 'clearance' lights on the side. Modifying your bumper reflectors(s) is a good option. Similar to what I did (though, mine weren't for fog related purposes, lol).
