    Default LED Tail Lights

    Anyone got a set of these installed on their VY and do they look any good?

    *braces for the negative views*

    I haven't seen them installed but I don't think they'd look any good.

    Wow. That wasn't the response I was expecting. Every other time these lights are posted people seem to say they are the worst designed lights ever made.

    Oh well. Good to know the actually look alright in person.

    I'd imagine in person they would appear darker. like a tinted lens?
    Maybe only see the LED's when their illuminated?

    As for the OP, I saw a set of these on a Black VY2 SS, they were fairly ordinary to look at, looked a bit tacky like Altezza Lights do on Black Bits'r'missin' Lancers...

    Probs won't get a night shot now that his car's been lol'd at.

    A night shot woulda been better though - so we could just see the lights, and not the car.

    He pulled that picture off his 'My Ride' thread. I think they look much better than originally believed they would. Like it or not, it's different.
    Night shots would be good mate, does the bottom red part light up or is that the reflector?
    Will these fit a VY Calais?

    nah they wont fit the calais cos the calais has bigger tail lights. I was driving behind a vy ss a few nigths ago and they do look pretty cool. I wouldnt get them though. They sorta remind me of the led honda accord tail lights.
