The quality/durability of the item would be a big issue, also if I were to send my stocks to be retofited... Hard to put a price on that. But I would very interested in LED tail lights.

Let me see some pics and if I like them count me in. Are the LED's replaceable? Like if one burns out can it be opened up and fixed. I was thinking of doing this too since I have HID projectors on my car that I made at home. I have a 98' SS. Thanks

The first light is 1/2 done, Ill get some pics when its finished. And no LEDs arent easily replaced but thats why I take so long to make them because I do it right the first time so I wont have to worry about replacing them..

LEDs will last an average of 100,000 hours, so no worries about them going out.

How many are you putting in them anyways? Those pics look SWEET!

They look great. Have you ever thought about arranging the LEDs in a bowtie outline, and then when the brake is applied have the bowtie entirely filled or something. I dont know if it's possible to do but I think it would sell great.
