"Euro" tail lights on E-bay. WTF?

Okay... someone clue me in... what exactly are these things?



I've seen the LED tails... but these look exactly like the stockers. What's the deal here? Does anyone have these installed?

The reflectors move from a ring in the outside red, to just the middle of the large (outside) tails. Thats all i see.

I think those look nicer than stock, but maybe not when they're lit up. I might be niteshadinig mine anyway, so these don't seem to be worth it for how little they changed from stock.

I honestly think those are the best looking option out there right now. And fairly inexpensive at just around $100. I like the idea that they don't have the outer reflector rings and the reverse light has a crystal clear lense. I think these will actually look better than the stockers. Not overdone like many many other tails on the market. Very simple and sleek. I like.

I would like to see them sitting beside a regualr taillights to see what the difference in the lights are. They look a little different and look nice, but I don't know if they have much of a change.

So... I bit the bullet and ordered a set. Found one set for $75 shipped... decent enough price.

When I do the install I'll do one side, then the other... I'll get some good pics of the differences.

Thats cool man, I think they look slightly better than the stock lights, but that would be awesome if you post pics of them on your car. If you could post some while they are lit up at night too!

I had a set shipped to me when I bought my Black halo projectors. I personally like them better. Like what was already said they look clean. They dont light up as a ring tho. There . I dont have any pics of my stock lights lit up but ill get you guys some pics of these later today and tonight. You all can compare with your own cars. Like i said, not a big difference. Look pretty much stock to the regular Joe, but to us cobalt owners we would notice it.

Well... hopefully they'll be in early next week... install looks to be a piece of cake so I'd say look for pics by the end of next week.

they look good, but I'm on the fence about them. I like how it looks like a ring, but they are kinda stock looking. I do however like how the reverse lights look!
