S-class style stoplamp.

My indie offered me these brand new Taiwan made S-class style stoplamps... he recommended me without LEDs, since they're not easy to replace, and he said the common bulb version looks better light up anyway... but here's just a pic to show... what do you guys think? Yes or No?

Those look pretty good, you think you have a farther picture of it? Did you get the LED one or the common bulb one?

I haven't done any research yet, but after seeing the before and after pictures... I WANT THEM! Do you think your indie would be willing to source some more? Of course I don't even know if the wiring is the same, but I'm willing to work that out. That is such an incredible improvement.

Maybe, it looks like they are going to run me $500-600 for the pair if I buy them here in The States. I'm still in research mode (Reach for wallet mode follows this phase), but will definitely be looking at this as my next mod.

I'm not finding that, but I'll keep looking. If you've got a link, then share with the class! I showed my wife the two pictures of your car, you know which one she liked best, then she turns to me and says, "I just picked the one that costs more money didn't I..." She is such a frugal person, that this kills her.

I think I kinda understand what you meant. The bottom part lights up with two seperate bulbs when you turn the lights on. The top part is either powered with one bulb, or rows of led that lights up when you brake.

The reverse lamp is still on the inner part and takes up for rows of thewhite lines, and the turn signal just beside it on the corner taking up the same space.

The ones I got earlier today are the led versions, will try to put it on tomorrow..
