I got bored the other day and I got tired of feeling like I was gonna get rear ended because of my blacked out tail lights so I added these turn signals and brake light. Theyre the flexible LED strips from oznium.com





They are bright as sh!t during the day, even though this vid doesnt show it.

I will soon be doing my tail lights with LEDs too. Just need the new housings

looks a touch ricey to me *shrug* I'd just go with brighter bulbs in the tail light housings if you use smoked covers..

The LED strips I saw that were premade for tail lights are not like I wanted. When you put the turn signal on the LED closest to the middle lights up and then sweeps to the last one on the outside and I didnt like that. I wanted all of them to flash at the same time.

Im still trying to decide if I want to hook them up to my running tail lights too. Im 99% sure I dont b/c I dont want them to be on all the time. I think thats tacky. Anyone else feel the same?

I never did like those too much.
