tail light ideas

since the 2 rear inner lights are just reflectors with a reverse light in them i was thinking about adding a bulb to the red ring around the reverse light and tie it into the brake/parking lights on the outside. anyone do this yet? i think they would look a lot better if both lit up at night.

you could put some BMW angel eyes in each tail light, that would look sweet as hell.

No purpose.... but sure as hell would look nice.

I have actually been wanting to do this to the rear lights as soon as i go the car but it would look bad with LED’s, they would only give a dot of light to were u put them. that wont match the other break lights.

i want To make it so that the middle red are over the reverse lights are always on at night with the normal lights, but have the original lights the outside ones, work like this. The middle of it is always on at night but when u break the outside rim of it turns on to make it a little diff. and the outside rim would be the turn signal also..... but damn that’s complicating and i would have no idea how to do it.

For the LED style taillight, you could enclose each LED in a chamber against the inside of the taillight. This way it would make each LED stand out. Similar to the Infinit G35's taillights.

i agree it would look SICK but there is nothing like that out so far, so you would have to slap somthing together, plus making it yourself..THOSE LED's are expensive as hell. if anybody can do it id love to see what it looks like

you guys could always get in touch with aedcentral.com
They make LEd tails for grand am's (and the turn signal are animated), meaning, that the inner LED's light up, untill the outer circle is lite up. Very cool, and a real head turner.

No! But they do make aftermarket items for a few GM cars, and tails are one of them) ,But maybe if you guys e-mail them, maybe get a few people on board on a group buy, maybe they would make tails for you guys.....
I just thought i would share them, since i have tails for my grand am, and these LED's turn so many heads. And i would like to see more stuff out for any GM vehicle.
