If you have seen this thread you will see that there is now an option to buying cheaper lights that look like the OEM LCI tail-lights. However there are some serious design flaws with this product.

I have developed a completely plug and play cable that almost gets rid of all the issues and makes these cables look a lot better.

I'll let you guess which side has my cable attached. To make the comparision look fair I've removed the brake bulbs from the side without my cable, ofcourse on the side that uses my cable you don't need to remove the brake bulbs because they are off until the Brakes are pressed.

The first two sets will be going out to two lucky owners this week. But I just thought I'd show you how the set looks.

Yours has to be the one on the left, cables make an amazing difference or a bad camera angle on the ones without the cable :thumbsup: .

Now we need to see OEM LCI vs your cable in a pic, and keep it clean this is a car forum :twoup:

I'm sure these pictures will draw more interest and buyers :). I'm on the fence right now, mainly because I really shouldn't be spending any more money. But wow, these look pretty darn good and definitely worth the $400 savings over an OEM LCI setup. The only difference is the reverse light is in a different spot and the LED rods don't wrap around the entire tail-light.

Good job!

I actually prefer that the non-OEM versions moved the reverse lights so now they are cleanly incorporated with the turn signal area. The OEM's have the random rectangle that somewhat distracts from the flow of the lines.

Either way, great job Bruce. :clap: :twoup: :dance:

am I the only one who hasnt seen a posted price? i dont think i missed it but if i did someone be sure to post the price of the cables.

The price is £125 + p&p which is £25 via DHL express shipping. You can combine shipping with people in your area if you want because it only costs me £5 more per extra cableset in the same package.
