L.E.D. Talilights
So i just bought an '09 Black Base Coupe and i was wondering if the lights in the link below (any of them) will work in this model/year? If anyone has them on an '09 lemme know how they look and work and if they were an easy replacement over the stock ones? Thanks everyone! :cssNET:
http://www.wooddashexperts.com/custo...e.php?cat=9161 P.S. Which set would look best with my black car? Let me know! |
yes... plz for the love of god do not get those chrome ones haha
and try modernperformance.com.. there a supporting vendor here .. get the smoked ones.. alot cheaper than that too@ |
I personally think that set is ugly regardless of color. I prefer (and have) these:

ha trust me, i would never get those chrome ones! And thanks for the link nich7601 , i'll check those out! The only thing is that i want to have all of my lights on the back L.E.D. so are the backups or the ones surrounding the backups L.E.D. as well?
|
Just the outside ones are. You can also get an LED 3rd brake light from Modern Performance.
|
The ones surrounding the backup lights don't light up at all
(stock or otherwise) |

it is just the backup lights, i just checked. Red rings are just for looks, no lights
|
Alright, thanks alot. I think i'm actually gonna go with the ones you have and also convert the third brake light while i'm at it!
|
thats what I have also...I guess I could have just showed you this picture right off the bat:

^^Nice.
Those are the two things I want to get in the future. |
nich7601, did u ventshade the red part on the back up lights to match the brake lights then? they kinda look smoked too. same with the side markers.
|
The modern performance is a 4 piece set, so the backup lights are tinted to match from the company.
The side markers were smoked by the previous owner, with SS logos in them somehow. Whoever he was, he did a helluva job, its one of my favorite small details of the car: http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...1/CIMG1835.jpg |

yeah, you guys are right about not getting the chrome led tail lights.. i bought em lol.. but theyre fixed now lol:
before: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...3/S7300362.jpg after: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...3/S7300451.jpg keep in mind that this isnt a real recent pic and since then i redid the nightshades and just blacked them out. the good thing is, these things are bright as hell lol |
modern performance is the way to go!!!!!!!!!! altho you need a resistor or the turn signals blink fast cuz of the lower call for power. (pics in post 13) but i love mine from them and they look best imo
|
I have the modern performance smoked LED tail lights and love them. My 3rd brake light is also LED but I can't hit the brake in this picture cuz im taking the picture lol.

so thats why they blink fast? lol, where do I get a resistor? And where do you install it?
This is how I spliced mine but yours will more than likely be different because yours are not custom made. All that you want to do is find the wire that is the turn signal and splice the resistor into it. Try to keep the resister away from any plastic because they do get hot enough to melt it. http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/a...SCobalt034.jpg |

the modern performance is the next thing on my list!
they're smoked too correct? are they still bright enough for lighting up the curb at night? |
the ipcw ones look sick tinted, but the inner ones stick out a bit to much, it looks weird.
i like the modern perf ones, but id realy like it if the had led in the inner lights to match |
i have the chrome LEDs. in the process of removing the lenses and paint matching the chrome to victory red. same goes for my chrome halo's.
|
anyone have the modern perf ones with the inners done?
