the smoked one i will post some pictures within 1 or 2 days, it is just a light tint, not really dark at all.

P.S. I am not sure about 40 dollars, but 50 shipped i think will be happen if we have more than 25 people interested. Keep me update or maybe start up a list. thanks

Is there any way to get a dark(er) tint?

should be a great mod for the 09+ with the led taillights.

glad to see them coming out.. it takes time and money to make things like this happen, so i'd happily pay whatever the asking price is on them. .of course, the cheaper the better though.

Definitely interested. I've been waiting for someone to make one of these, they've been out for the Mazda3's and MX-5's for some time. I would be willing to spend $75+ if these are good quality. I need to see more pics though. Big non-blurry ones. Pics of the LEDs lit up with the other brake lights so I can see how bright the LEDs are (they look a little weak in that one pic of them lit).

Question:

Quote:

you will have to use a load resistor with it because if you swap all the brake lights to LEDs, you'll have the ABS light illuminated. Keeping the filament bulb in the third brake light prevents that.

This was posted over here...

Would this piece have the load resistor already in line or would you have to solder one on?

Thanks,

Brian

I'm also interested, depending on the price and the quality of the light.
