    Well, for the price they would be worth checking them out. They certainly have come down in price from a few years ago.

    2 things to consider

    I have LEDs in my vs

    1, if full led lights in the rear, cruise doesn't engage, not enough load with LEDs so u need a load resistor to simulate the load normal filament bulbs have. This may not be of concern on the vt up, but it is with vr-s

    2, ask the seller to provide a mcd figure. Most don't and they are often not bright enough during the day to see when u brake.
