eww frenched caddy lights are hideous on gm fullsize , even worse on s10's and will be 20x's worse on an xB i hope no one heeds your idea.

 

heres the ones i ended up ordering:


instead of being Helix though, i get the real thing. the JDM Rushwork tails look exactly the same, but Helix are copies. im still waiting for them to get imported over right now ill post pics once i get them up (probably in a diff. thread though)

scott

 

JDM Rushwork?? have any links for those?

 

um helix is jdm bortha. but theres ebay copies of the helix for like 100.00

 

i lost the website. its totally in japanese though.

I know Dewmerz had it he was the one that showed it to me

scott

 

Helix Automotive is in CA from what I hear.
http://www.helixautomotive.com/

Go through Japanese books, I dont see any Helix. Its all Rushwork, Garson, Fabulous, or J Cools.

I may be wrong though. I know Rushworks are authentic though.

Scott

 

i may be wrong too. either way. they're both nice i'm sure.

 

So in other words the difference between Rushworks and Helix is the Rushworks are more expensive.

But, ya, like Clay and Brandon said they are very dangerous. You can't see a damn thing driving behind someone with those during the day. I followed Clay one time and almost ran into him twice.

 

Are we talking about driving ability or taillight brightness Jon? you know im just kidding around.

yea basically the only difference is money im told. Orataro said theyre similar, and hes seen both I guess. its also for feeling and knowing you got "Real" stuff i guess.

scott

 

ok so judging from the response on these tailights i am going to say i dont like them as much as when i first saw them

 

Probably both Scott..........lol.

Seriously though, be careful

 

wish they'd fly in CA.

 

i've followed cars with these no problems. yeah theyre not THAT bright but they look awesome. just get the 15led side and front reflecting matrix bulbs from www.autolumination.com and you'll be set with some bright **** lights.

 

no cop's know. and of the very few that do the majority does not care. and in cali we can run them since we dont have annual inspections. it is not a cali law , or a north carolina law. it is a federal law that all automobiles produced after said year MUST have red rear reflectors.

 

haha, i want them. so i should get some new LEDs to go in them and i should be set right?

and would it look better in my BSP if i had the smoked ones or the clear ones? i'm thinking either.. i need to see the clear ones. they're on ebay?

 

I have been running these tails for months now. They are kinda dim but I havn't had one problem. No rearendings, or tickets from the po po's or bulbs turning orange to speak of. Here are some pics bro. I say get em, they look sweet & people are always asking about them, especially at shows

I love em - They could be brighter but after what happened to Destyr, I will pass on new bulbs for now. Plus it is a _____ to put the bulbs in on these in the first place. If all three bulbs are not positioned correctly they will act all funky, the reverse lights will light with the brake, all three will light with the brake. It was crazy took an hour to figure it out but worth the wait IMO.

My car has been changed alot since these pics but the tails are still the same !

Any questions - ask away !!!!!

 

ok i forgot about the bulb hood. so the regular red natural glass bulbs from www.autolumination.com would be a better choice. theyre natural red glass not stained or painted so they shouldnt turn orange or pink. i have them for my turn signals on my car. about .99 or 1.99 per bulb.

 

DANNNNGGG. that looks REALLY nice Blue05. it looks dern bright enough to me. i need to just break down and go ahead and order them.

 

Those lights are stinkin cute!!!

 

if you going to get leds, might as well get the led tail lights that just came out...
