Default Just installed my brand new LED smoked out taillights.

I just received my long awaited smoked out LED taillights yesterday. I was GOING to wait to install them after I got back from vacation, but I decided to do it at lunch.

WHAT a difference!

The LED's are very crisp and bright..matching my spoiler LED perfectly. the signals are also very sharp and bright and flash w/a brilliant pulse. The reverses are also as luminescent.

Mostly I didn't realize how UGLY my Amber/Red old taillights were until I put these on.

I took pictures during lunch, but will have to post the pictures later tonight after work.

Default clear corners

Hey Do-Luck.
These tailights were through clear corners
The price I cannot discuss you can contact Mike at clear corners directly and talk to him about pricing.

I'll have the pictures up tonight.

ALso if I add dotcom to the name..this site blocks his website name.
Man..must be something personal against him or something
ClubLexus has changed.

Yeah, I wish that he (clear corners) didn't have to install those LED's in them. I am on my own process to remove the orange myself from the 95-96.

I just need to find a spare set to mess around with.

*sighs* so many projects, so little time...

These didn't turn out that great. When I return from vacation I'll take better picts.

Well here goes.

Default Unbiased opinion

Honestly, the pictures I made don't do them justice. They are a very CLEAN light. And the signals are too cool.

I actually installed one side by side w/my old amber lights. They really made my hold liights look well...OLD.

I'll try and get better picts up that do them justice.

It's all a matter of perspective I guess ..on what you want and are willing to get.

But I already got a lot of very astounded looks from other SC owners on my way home. They never seen anything like it.

My lights look smoked out, don't look rice at all..and look like a stock fixture but a bit darker(smoked out) and out of nowhere come these bright LEDs that light up.

For that..I feel it's worth it.

More picts to come soon
