that looks sweet! I have the eagle eye ones's and they are relatively dim compare to the newer LEDs. I would totally get them if they make it for the sedan!

yeah I agree, they need to be mounted farther outward within each "cavity" so that they can be seen better from the side. I wonder if its hard to take these apart and fix the issue.

Also, do these retain the rear fog light?

Installed similar LED tail lights

I put these in on a recent project of mine, they look close to what you're looking at. Wish I had a night pic of them, but they look great! No problems with computer errors, or random dimming/brightening when driving. I had one reverse light go out on me, but it was the bulb so no worries.



Ignore the amg on the trunk lid, I'm pretty sure the guy I bought it from put it there.

Whos the best supplier for led tail lights to my w210 96 stationwagon nowadays?
I want some real bright ones like the original new era, not ones that disappears in daylight

Modified the Eagle Eyes

So, I have been unhappy with the output with the LEDs on the Eagle Eyes. I have always wanted to swap all the LEDs to the brighter ones. I found this awesome retrofitter at Hidplanet.com and he swapped the LEDs on the circuit board for me with Philips Luminleds HPWT type. It is truly amazing!!

Here's the result: Before and After


I also added 2 canbus 1156 led from Superbrightleds.com as rear fog lights. I tapped a wire from the left rear and added a 3ohm 50W resistors to power up the right rear fog lights. This should reduce tailgaters

Thanks buddy. I see you also drive the Nissan Elgrand. Could you show us some pics please? We have the Quest which is built on the same platform. I put Tein coilovers on it and handles much better

COs must be nice, but how's the ride quality? I'm planning to put 22s on stock suspension tho .

Off topic, but as requested

A few minor things were added such as 3M tint (30%/15%), garbage bin and tissue leather box

Like I mentioned, I'm considering 22s on stock suspension next..

Nice

The rear looks abit too low than the front? It'd look more obvious if you have passangers..
