First off, wolfie's products are amazing.
Secondly, i have been looking for a lighting option for his rear 3rd brake light. As we know, Culpable came up with an LED strip as a solution: here Looks good, but i didn't want to mix a LED strip with my non-LED'd rear lights (no, i'm not going to cut open JDM tails to put LEDs in those too). Even though my solution IS an LED, its not a strip of them and it reflects everywhere. Plug and play, no modification needed. Purchased from www.v-leds.com / here is the actual bulb This bulb has 10 radial firing and 3 forward firing LEDs: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Now, i've made quite a deal about 1 LED. -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ

...but I need to see what it looks like installed and unlit compared to the LED bulb. Personally, i don't like the look of the strip option during the day (pic below, thanks to culpable). But as you said, its all personal opinion. the only reason is looks like that is because the panel I used to install the strip has a black / drak brown color, if I have though about it and used a white background it would be a perfect white color, but we'll see that when wolfie installed the ones I sent to him. Now, your LED bulbs looks good and I'd say that the uneven light is compensated for the plug and play easiness of the mod. -------------------- ![]() |
