Default Post Pic's 02-05 LED Tail Lights

And where did you buy them from?

Reason I ask is because I bought a brand new set from Carid and had them custom painted and installed. Well guess what when I stop they don't light up like they should. So I'm SOL!!!

Heres a pic-


So looking to buy another set from a reputable dealer.

Bummer. I got a pair of Sonars off eBay but they did not sit tight/flush so ended up going back to my oems.

Those do look badass. Thats too bad they didn't sit right. Looking at the Recons they look the same as the ebay ones except they are way more expensive.

Love the roll pan I'm still debating if I should get one down the road.

Try looking at spyders' I put a set on mine a while back because the backup light corroded. They work great.

Thanks for the replies.

Update: I decided to try and open up my old ones and new ones and swap out the insides.
Today I succeeded and only broke the clear plastic on the old ones. I was extra careful with my new ones. But now I'm thinking of painting the insides white.
I'll keep you guys updated. This might take a while.

No but my old tails were - so that why I took them apart to use in my new ones. But sice I was able to take them apart I got the insides painted also. Going to try and work on them today.
