Update: I found that the junk near my house has got in a LOT more 06+ Impalas. Would really like to go. But I'm white and I feel they don't like white guys. Maybe need to bring a friend.

You figure that's $10 each plus $10 shipping. I could have said $40 shipped

$25 is fine with me if you gift it or take care of the PayPal fees.

Yep! I'm grateful. I wish I could promise these to all kinds of people but like colodude says the parts aren't easy to come by, especially the third brake lights from the 06+ Impala.

Well, instead of the LEDs I ordered for this project, I just received an open, empty padded envelope. Filing a claim with Ebay and ordering another set today

I would be ******* PISSED. Says mine will be here Thursday. What a coincidence that's my day off too! And the day mom's getting her 2015 Focus.

Disappointed how narrow they are but they're still bright as ****. I've wasted NO time ripping the "cute" little red lens off and soldering wires to the plugins.

I see yours came a day early!
Good job soldering wires in those bulb sockets. I use that technique on my tube taillights
So the big question is: do those LED boards fit in the side markers??
I have a funny feeling that the ones I have coming in will be too big...

Thanks! Once I make the dimples in the lens they should fit perfect. I just wish they were a little longer.

Holy crap these things are so bright it makes the daylight look like night time. This was taken at 3:30pm with the sun shining almost directly into the trunk.

Hopefully soon! I'm taking a nap then cutting apart those side markers. Then it's just waiting for glue to dry.

See post #40. They are sitting above the marker lights in that pic. 100% plug and play, and you can return to stock without ever cutting your wiring.
