Has anyone any experience on these guys here:

They claim to be OEM-like and would be a cheaper alternative for someone like me looking for a cheaper, plug and play upgrade to LCI tail lights

Any information is much appreciated

I just love the way they mislead people to thinking thats the way those lights will look on the car. Infact I now finally figured out why the plugs were missing on the first set of these that I worked on - I believe that piece must have been the dealer's marketing material so that power could be connect to the LED rods or the LED Turns only to make them look brilliant.

There is a long thread on here that shows that these lights will look nothing like those photos.

Good catch Brabus

You can tell the difference between those 2 pictures if you pay attention to the location of the reverse light.

How abt this one?

There's no cluster of LEDs behind the rods like the this old design:

(Old design has 3 rows of LED clusters)

This makes me think that Asian manufacturer has started copying the LCI tail light.

The pic shows that the item for sale has the 5 LED rods w/o cluster of LEDs behind it.

i also reported them to ebay for blatantly misrepresenting what they are actually selling.
