After seeing Bruce's post about how he basically got the Ebay LCI style tail-lights to be awesome I was about to jump on a set.

However, when I searched for them on ebay from the same seller, I noticed the tail-lights are different now. Instead of the using the same brake lights like on the pre-LCI tail-lights, the brake lights are now an LED cluster. I provided a link below for reference. Yay or nay on these? Or is this actually the same as it was before (aka the one that redeyejedi tested) and I just didn't get enough sleep last night?

EDIT:
I just noticed that they are the other brand of LCI type lights that look horrible from a thread I remember seeing here (only 3 of those bars vs the 6 or whatever that were on the other one).

Does anyone know if this seller still has the ones that redeyejedi was setting up a group buy for? This was the only one I found on his ebay store.

These are not the same tail lights. The ones in this post have been available from even before the LCI cars came out.

yeah I think only one member in our forums have them, and its the smoked ones.

The last ones that came out are much, much nicer.
