Any members' experience with these LED tailights....

I wanted to gather information on these aftermarket products that are being sold on Ebay concerning quality and brightness of the tailights:

I have them and they are AWESOME. Brighter than stock and quality is top notch. I'm a lighting freak (only lights I have on my 4Runner that actually have a filament are the fogs ) and I am way impressed with them.

DO IT! (haha, I spend way too much money because of this site )

I wish somebody would make some decent looking ones like that for '89-'95 pickups.

Yeah, for some reason all the led ones eliminate the amber turn signals, and most of the other ones look like crap and they all put some round thing in there somewhere, like the reflector on that one you posted.

How hard would it be for them to just make one that has the turn signal on top, then the reverse light, and then some leds for the brake and tail light at the bottom??? Just like the stock ones, but with leds.

Haha, I'm a lighting freak as well. I've changed most of the lighting on all of my parents vehicles. Even convinced many of my friends to change the lighting, exterior & interior. My dad and all his friends call me the "bulb man" lol...

Great looking 4Runner Pdyebrasil, but I was reading your writeup/post on the "3rd LED Brake Light" and wanted to inquire on where you purchased your LEDs for the mod. Thanks in advance!

Thanks man, it looks a little different now... For the better of course. But anyway, I purchased the LEDs from a member over on the HIDPlanet forums. For the third brake light you need the red-orange superflux LEDs. His name is AZDave. You can find them on other websites or even on eBay, but make sure that they are real Lumiled Superflux before buying. There are a lot of fakes.
