Ordered W208 LED Tail Lamps

Should be here by Monday.

Cost $270, from Yahoo auction Japan. I hope they last, seems they come from the same company I got my projectors from; so far so good.

Nice! Gonna check my local shop to see whether they can get a set from taiwan for me. Can't wait to see them installed.

I noticed that there is a hole in the top corner closest to the reverse light due to the lack of space for the circuit board. Don't really like that. In the last pic, another led bulb is place there to make it less akward. Seems like that's the way to go.

Looks very nice! For the left hand tail light, are there any leds for the unused rear fog lamp portion? Or are the leds missing? Was thinking of making both sides come on when using the rear fogs.

I'm checking to see if I can get the smoked ones (provided they have them as this point in time).

Thanks. Both sides of the rear fog lamp are functional. This is because the functional requirement between left and right depend on the country.

I checked with my local shop and ordered the smoked version.

Seems OTS is selling these through depo. Purchase price here is US$235.
