lol no I traded+Cash.. then made a whole bunch for people that wanted them as well

theres two ways to make them signal+brake and be running. But one way involes Diodes to keep power flowing correctly and if you're not an electrician I wouldn't bother with that system

I just put two LED systems in each light, one wired to running and the other wired to yellow. This is basically how OEM bulbs work (two filaments if you know what I mean) so they acted like running lights, and then when signaling and braking the other set turned on in the lights, doubling the output, creating a braking and signaling output

Anybody know of a vendor that sells ipcw tails with the resistors built in? Would like to avoid buying them separately if possible.

All IPCW tails have the resistor built in, there is 4 or 5 different finishes great warranty bolt with nice precut to length wires 10 min install. I just ordered mine from an eBay vendor. Only downside is they are spendy about $270

i guess they call mine platinum smoke. i looked at videos of the other led tails and by far from running light to brakes/ turn signal these are the brightest. i always fool people with my lil cobalt thinking it is a GT-R

see I dont hate those^ I almost bought them but I just didn't like how they look like all little red spots of light.

I wanted a more O.E.M look with mine, thats why I made mine illuminate the whole lense like a factory light would

Yea I know what ye mean but from a distance especially at night I love the look I just can't stand the chrome on the sides of them and i dont care for tinted tails, tint these ones red to give it more of a stock factory look
