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!

It looks like it since the LED bulbs are significantly smaller compared to the newer ones. The thing I don't like about the eagle eyes is that the LED lights are too indent inside the housing which reduced its performance.

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.

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
![](http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m103/hkhottie/comparison_zps736ebff0.jpg)
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![Cool](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/cool.gif)

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..
