Question Difference between these tail lights?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/05-10...Q5fAccessories


are they the same? first there's a bit of a difference in the price. second one of them says JMD the other doesn't (JMD one being the more expensive). and third one says lamps, the other doesn't?

can someone help me out here? i'm a total lights noob. which one should i purchase?

Your asking about quality on an ebay aftermarket car part... especially an electronic part.

Most problems are with the LEDs going out; have heard a few London fog issues but nothing that can't be fixed with some sealant

Personally, I would go with Anzo's or TYC's. TYC's have great quality and so does anzo's mostly. As STITCHES said, the LED's might go out on cheap lights and if you were to buy TYC's from your dealer, they might replace the lights if a led goes out.

alright so i'm assuming i can only buy those from my local dealer since i haven't seen those on ebay or online.

however, if they don't have the style i'm looking for which is the tails i posted i'm buying those. and can't i just order leds online and replace them? i don't mind paying good money for quality led lights so i might just replace them as soon as they go out.
