LED vs OEM tail lights

[realgm]

So right now i have the stock red lights, that came with my gray mazda
I want to upgrade to either LED or OEM ones, and was wondering which one is better, especially for a gray mazda 3. And also where is the best place to buy it. I searched this forum and couldnt find a good place to get it, dont trust ebay a lot, unless someone on here has experience with a ebay seller

thanks

OEM LEDS !

Get them from Joe @ MOT , but be prepared to give up your first born child ... they are pretty expensive

Another option is Oakville Mazda, they have been good to work with as well:

TOTALLY get the OEM ones!!!!!!!!!! Best dent in my bank account I've ever made.... ahhahah makes the car look 20x better. I also got mine from Joe @ MOT.

I paid the extra rather than gettin them cheap off ebay for several reasons... I'm pretty paranoid haha, so I like to know if something breaks I can get it taken care of quickly and easily. I'd recommend doing the same if you like having peace of mind.

The aftermarket ones look really great as well, but I'd suggest staying far far away from the xenon store if someone ends up mentioning them... there's been too many problems with LEDs burning out and having to ship stuff out to california on your own dime etc etc... miiiight not be worth the hassle for some unless you're willing... I duno.

Good luck with your search and post up some pics when you decide on a set!!!

I have an aftermarket set of LED tails... same (or very similar design) to this: http://depoautolights.com/mazda-redblack-tail-lights-p-1778.html?osCsid=96a0991da1fb264d69207b234f1c2cf6

They're great too I find... and they weren't as expensive as the OEM ones (But then I got them for sale... they were originally 260 for a pair)
