And that price is a good price.....I paid just a little bit more than that for my set.

I'll see if I have any nighttime pictures......searching now.....

Unfortunately I only have nighttime photos when I had the stock rear tails. I can snap some this evening for you, tho. ;)

Thanks a lot for the pics! I am already assuming that these LEDs will look awesome at night, looking forward for your pics.

Tony, what DON'T you have installed on your car... :shakes head:

Hmmm I wonder how it would look if you took apart those JDM taillights and painted the inside housing black - kinda like the headlight mods...

Here are a few pictures I took just a few minutes ago. It's not pitch black here yet.....more like dusk. I can take a few more later this evening if you wish.

Taken without the lights turned on at all @ dusk:

Did you wire the rear fog light into the brake system and if so ,did you use a lower watt bulb?

I was kinda thinking of going that route and not wire a fog light switch ,to fill that area of the black cap of wtf is that suppose to be.

I had mine wired up by Altered Atmosphere in Gaithersburg, MD. Mine is simply designed to come on the moment my parking lights come on. And I didn't make any adjustments to the bulb. They simply wired it up during one of my many modification installs and I just went with however it turned out.

jookiyaya's install may be different, tho.

theres 3 ways of doing it.... if you want the fog brake light to come up when you brake for a "4 light braking system" you have to tap the acc power line which is dark green as opposed to the light green in the back braking wire line-up.

if you want the light to come up just whenever you flick on the parking lights... tap it to the light green source from any back taillight setup, and lastly if you want it to light up when the parking break is on as well as shine brighter when you apply brakes.. you would have to split the positive terminal on the fog light assembly and tap 1 into power acc and the other to the light green.

theres a schematic drawing for each color wires on the diy thanks to simota ^^
hope that helps...

and p.s. hehe extreme remember back then we were into the jdm's? i gotta admit urs is sexy too ^^
