Sorry about some of the pics. The car was in motion.
All good .. Still looks good tho, you can really how bright those LED's are. Have you tried them on a darker lit street? Is it really that big of a difference? I love LED's and this would be next along with the LED eyebrows.

I live on the east side of midtown Manhattan. No dark streets in my hood. My apartment building's parking garage is about as dark as it gets. The LED reverse lights are really bright.

Thanks! Appearance mods are all a matter of subjective taste. I happen to love bright.

John, whenever I get a chance to go to NY again and you have free time, I'll stop by your house and you can do the install for me. Maybe Thursday this week?
Sure. Just lemme know ahead of time about a day ahead. Call my actual cell phone number instead.

Thanks Mike! These 24 LED panels work really well. I did try many other bulbs with no success. I am still trying to locate panels that will be even brighter and bigger than these.
You and Mike are the biggest LED freaks, I've ever known. I meant it as a compliment.

Thanks David.

OK, I guess I am hooked on lighting mods.

But I am have the finish line in sight with the 6000K headlights and the 8500K GP Thunder bulbs for the AEs.
When are you changing the headlight to 6000k? I want to see how they match to the fogs
