So i was looking at after market tail lights online and so far im pleased with the price and looks and all. But the point of this post is mainly to ask if anybody knows if there are any aftermarket tail lights that come with the middle 2 tail lights wired to work as tail lights as well as just reverse lights. i love the way that looks and i think chevy was so stupid to not do that. i know that there is a way to rig it with some random led's so that they could work like that but if i can avoid homeade rigging it i will. so please, somebody let me know if they have seen a way to get the inner tail lights on the 2door cobalt to work without taking them apart. so are there any aftermarket ones made for it. thank you.

 

when my buddy had his 07 SS/SC he had a set of aftermarket taillights and the 2 inner taillights were functional so all 4 tails were lit up, i know exactly what youre talking about and it looks so much better with all 4, i believe these were the taillights he had

"COBALT LED TAILIGHTS ROUND" on cobalt-addiction.com

http://cobalt-addiction.com/exterior.htm

but, it says the 2 inner taillights have to be custom wired in, so he did this on his own, but im sure you could find something on here as far as a "how-to" or somethin

but i assume they come ready to go and all you have to do is the wiring, not 100% sure though, ill ask him how he went about doing this lol

 

wow it actually says right in the details of the tail lights that the led's around the reverse lights have to be custom wired which is better than havin to take apart the tail light. thank you so much dude. those are pretty good looking tail lights to. pricey but may be worth it if i can wire the tail lights to work the way i want.

 

Good looking? Those are

 

lol they actually looked really good, the LEDs are in a "revolver" like pattern, there are like 8 of them and theyre pretty large so it doesnt look like ****

EDIT: ok maybe a few more than 8 lol but i know the LEDs are large and it doesnt look shitty IMO lol his were black and slightly tinted too though, the ones they have as the display pics dont look that great i will agree

 

the tail lights on cobalt addiction are the ipcw ones i use to have them.. there plug and play. they come with wires so you can connect the outers to the inners so the inners have power. there amazing quality lights i just didnt like the design and how they stuck out so far. i took them off my car because i just hated the image it gave off. i gave them to my sister and got 70 dollar ebay ones and nightshaded them. looks 100 times better imo

 

thank you cobalt 08 ill definitely do alittle more research now that u said they stick out alot.

 

They stick out about an inch. I have them as well. You can get them off e-bay for $199.99 + $25 shipping. Cheapest I've found them. I love them! They are really bright! I will be nightshading or trying to find a place to put tinting film on them shortly so they blend in more with the trunk. I think it sets the cobalt apart from the others and other custom jobs just don't look right.

 

an inch compaired to stock inner and outeres they stick out probally 4-5 inches stock inners are flush with the trunk the ipcw are totaly not


proof

 

I just kept my factory lights and wired lights in the inners. I have a video ill find.didnt use leds either

and yes I cant turn right,its a on going problem

 

Dude, just get 2 9.5inch LED strips off oznium.com and throw them in the inner tail lights, you can push them in the reverse light hole with a screw driver and they look pretty decent with the stock outer tails. A friend of mine has them. Easy to wire up too, just run the wires to the tail light on the same side and then attach the wires to the ground and blinker/break positive.

 

That actually doesnt look bad at all.

 

haha too bad you dont have reverse lights anymore

 

^^^^Actually I do have reverse lights :P
