Nice. I wasn't aware there were styles other than the other evenly spaced LED tails. These look promising. Anyway, you can get pictures of them actually mounted? I'm also curious how they illuminate.

interested and curious on the group buy price. I never liked the other style led taillights but it mentions that they are "08 style" so I'm hoping they look good. pics on the car would be nice though.

Like I said, I'm waiting to hear back from them on price as well as numbers required for the GB. I'll report back when I do. I've also got a request in for some better pictures.
Back when I did the clear fogs GB, they'd actually asked me if I wanted to test fit these for them (and get the pair for free!), but I declined because I wasn't sold on the design. The more I see 'em, the more I like em now though. That being said, they must've had some testers out there who sent them pictures of fitment, look, etc. I'll see if I can get some of those pics too.
Another thing I was going to inquire about was the abilitiy to have them tinted (by the vendor). I'm assuming that they aren't interested/able to, but it's worth asking.

From the limited pics, I definitely prefer this style to the other LED tails, and they seem to be $100 or so cheaper than the other style typically lists for, too. DEPO seems to make good stuff - that's who made the Ebay clear fogs I've got, and the quality of construction seemed top notch.

AAIIIC - Agreed! Does that mean you're in for a set? ;-)
I'm gonna post a link to this thread over on the CTSV vs. The World FB page to see if there's any other interest too...

here a couple of questions:
- Does the light bar--and only the light bar--illuminate at night when the brake is not depressed?
- Are the lights below the main LED array turn signals or reverse lights?

Those are the same lights they've been selling, just a different picture. I've had mine for over a year, with no issues. Some people don't like the spacing of the LEDs, but I think they look great. Tons of cars with stock led tails have a similar arrangement.
The fitment was a little off. I had to shim them using some thick spacers from a tv wall mount to get them to sit right. That's just what I had laying around. I also had to pull off the rubber trim and reapply it. It was all crooked and jacked up. Might want to pick up a roll of 3M double sided tape.
Aside from that, they're ****. I've been very happy with mine.
