Not sure if this post goes here or in Exterior Mods but it's electrical so I'll leave it here.

I was looking at the replacement rear reflectors which have built in LEDS which act as brake lights. Has anyone seen these or had any experience with them? Looking to put them on my 04 Sedan and just curious about their reliability and ease of wiring.

I have LED reflectors but I use them with my marker lights at night.

Edit: I tapped into the tail light wiring and haven't had any issues.

I have the gen 2 led version that are both brake and reverse lights. I got mine off eBay. they are easy enough to physically install, pull the bumper remove the the reflectors, add the new lights. I did have to drill out a hole for the wires though. you will need to extend the wiring also. quality wise they are ok. I have individual leds burning out after a year of use though.

Any reliable purchasing sources? Need both rear and side ones for an 04 Sedan. Or just browse eBay?

your can get them from sponsors, I think corksport has a set, nextmod can probably get them also, or eBay has tons.
