Lightbulb LED Tail Lights - thoughts

Anyone have any experience or thoughts on these? Not from a "How do they look perspective" but more from a installation/fitting/reliability perspective.

I really appreciate it. I think I'm going to pull the trigger on these.

I love mine, these paired with the projectors make the car look brand new. Install was very simple. you just need to find a spot to mount the led boxes, which will come with a sticky residue to mount them inside the trunk somewhere. Not hard to find a spot, You mount them inside the actual trunk lid, and somewhere hidden behind the liner in the trunk. very easy.

Very nice. I put black projectors on mine after I hit a deer. I agree, these LED rears would look great. Get 'em.

Thanks guys. I'm ordering them now. I was curious if anyone had these and went to a car wash etc or had any issues in general with them potentially not fitting perfectly and or leaking into the trunk.

Thank is my main concern. I'm going to buy them non the less and I'll I guess I'll be the one to let y'all know!



Thanks again.

Here some before and after pics, its been about a year now no issues. Do your license plate lights LED too!

Fitment isn't that far off. I was totally **** when i installed up they don't line up perfectly as OEM. But really unnoticable.

Hi guys, I'm looking to buying below led tai lights from mars. Anyone with experience with them? How's quality? My current tail lights are very dim and looking for potential upgrade.

Thank!!
