    Smile New LED Lights

    Took me more than 2 hours cus i had to take off the taillights, bumper, mud flaps, tires, and everything just to do such an easy mod. The wiring was painful too since nothing was labeled. Trial and error the whole way. Almost gave up half way but thanks god that I didn't. My ass is bright as **** at night right now. Do you think that it looks nice?

    no, i actually got them off ebay for like $20 and free shipping. I thought it was gonna be some cheap shit but it ended up being pretty decent! recommend this over corcksport cus it is cheaper and it does the exact same function.

    looks great! they wired into your brake lights?

    also, what is your lighting setup above your plate? somethings special or just a brighter bulb?

    I wired it to the licence plate light. when i turn on my headlights, the led will turn on. didnt wire to the break lights because i think the led might burn out faster cus its constantly going on and off.

    That might just be the opposite. Blinking/Flashing an LED on and off will increase lifespan of the LED.

    The LEDs itself probably would last longer than the car.

    If you wired it to be full 100% brightness, that might be confusing/annoying to others following you on the road.

    Nice, I found a set of these that have 12 Red and 12 White LED's in them, they can be used as brake lights and reverse lights.
