lol they seem cheap..the pic obviously isnt the real product..youl prolly have weird/bad fitment issues, possible electrical in the future. dont cheap out save up for authentic jdm pair. or buy the ones on lancershop.com for 100 bucks more you get quality replicas..but for the love of god no ebay ..unless you own a honda lol

A *** ton of people run those tails on here I have seen them in person and fitment was perfect.

Not everything inexpensive is total junk .


I may grab a set as I'm sick of the stupid halo rings in my modded ones. Second pair that did this on me

There is nothing electrical to go wrong haha they are light housings. You can reuse the harnesses on your taillights if you are really worried about it

I have them and actually I think I bought them from the same seller. They work and fit good. General consensus is they are worth it. Few people has condensation issues but a little bit of sealant around the edge fixed it.

mine are painted jdm already thats why i want to complete the scheme with tails and side markers. they should sell a whole light set heads/tails/ markers that would be a catch, i purchased my set ill let you know how it works out, the reall catch for me was the side markers being included since i wanted those also
