I have these tail lights in the mail on the way right now


What are you talking about???

To paint them, you don't take the tail's apart into pieces. Why would you need to re seal them?

Well I'm making some carbon fiber eyelids right now. I have a thread in appearence "carbon fiber eyelids anyone?..... ". They were too big for the way my front color scheme looks. So I made them smaller

Well I'm done with the other headlight. Just fixed the led that was flickering. Got pics of both headlights in my "hailcesar75 r8 headlight mod" thread.

I think the Infinite HIDs 48 SMT color changing LED turn signal bulbs should be added. They are LED towers with 48 LED diodes. When the parking lights and/or headlights are on, these bulbs (which replace the orange amber bulbs) will run white. When you activate the turn signals or emergency flashers, they flash orange. Here are a few pics of mine, and a few links..

cuz I have the second gens. Ive heard mixed reviews. Some say it isn't direct plug and play. Others say the lense peels a bit. Either way, it's an eBay store so it's hit or miss. I got my secand gens from eBay too and have had no problems

Anyone else have the Modern Performance smoked LED tails on an '09 T/C and see the plugs are not matched for the factory connector?

I have no problem with redoing the wiring, but I need to know which lines are what...

Or am I missing something stupid? lol

***** EDIT: Got them working. ***********************

Modern Performance LED Tail Lights & 2009 Cobalt SS/TC

Connectors do not match up, you need to re-wire as follows.

Driver Side
-------------------
Black - > Black
Yellow -> Green
Brown -> Red

Passenger Side
--------------------
Black -> Black
Green -> Green
Brown -> Red

Does anyone know what size bulb the gen II or gen III headlights take for the low beams? I havent purchased my headlights yet but I am doing a big order for HID kits right now and would like to order them right now. If anyone has ordered from K2 motor, what size are the bulbs on the headlights below? Thanks!
