They lack one essential thing - - - style. Which mean they ain't going on my car. Give me something that looks as good as TYCs and I'll be interested.

S'more info from Jeff:

There will be five colors to choose from,
1)Chrome
2)Smoke
3)Black
4)Chrome with red/amber/clear lens
5)Black with red/amber/clear lens
Options 3-5 exite me. Maybe the different lenses will spiffy-up the design and satisfy some fence sitters. I'll continue to pass on what I hear...

I can see them possibly being non-hideous if you made the housing black and tinted the lens, but it's a stretch.

Not possible. What makes this thing hideous is the LED pattern. There is zero style. Here you have a rectangular light pattern and an oval back up light. There is no continuity. If the back up light was rectangular if would have half a chance. But in the end, the red retangular pattern is still hideous.

what the hell is this all about?? this isn't anything NEW... these same tails were shown about 6 months or more ago... and majority vote then as now is NO.

They're hideous. They were then, they are now.

Correct, it's not new, but now there we have a release date, which is what this post is about. I'm just posting the info for those that care or are interested.

Ugly or not, it's just more selection for the Box. I think all the taillights currently availible, with the exception of the Helix tails (illegal in most states and lack of daytime light potency) and TYC's (played out), are plain ugly.

I'm open to new ideas. Personally, I like them. To each their own...
