i bought my facelift tailights on e-bay from ipex motoring and have no complaints whatsoever. everything came as advertised and was plug-n-play. the seller states that the lights are manufactured by an "oem approved" source if that gives you any peace of mind, but you should already know what you're getting into. fitment is great and brightness is nearly on par with oem, but mine are smoked so that's not a fair gauge of that aspect. i'd say for ~$215, it's one of the cheaper mods for our vehicles that gives the rear end a much needed update.

This and that.
I just ordered a smoked set from ipex motoring as well. Ended up being around 380 for me in Canada with shipping. Will update once it's installed and all that.

In for results. Been waiting for a complete plug and play option with no error codes from ebay for a little while.

I am actually really good friend with the owner of the manufacturers for these taillights that IPEX carries. I will get some pricing tonight and maybe I can give you guys a better price. Of course I will test fit them on my own car first.

I might as well bring a set of sample with me from Taiwan in April.
