Believe me, I'd like to see it myself... but my xD isn't even here yet! As of yesterday it went from "port" status to "freight" status, sp it will probably be here tomorrow!
Don't worry... I'll post before and after pics of the tails.

If you get a chance, take some night or dark pics. I would like to see how the signals/reverse look in the dark. Maybe an "on" led shot vs. a "brake" shot for brightness comparison. This would involve help of course, so no problem if not.
Just figured I would ask.

I was there shooting them by myself and didn't have any way of holding brake pedal down.

I've had the LED tails for the past 25k miles. Three of the LED's (forming a diagonal line) have "burnt out". I am waiting to see if the dealer would warranty them (I bought them after the car).
Just a heads up.

I got a set from a raffle yesterday and had them put on the car. I stood behind the car multiple times tryin to figure out whats missing. remember I have dark gray already. they look maked on this color. so I'm gonna do a quicky wrap with clear red vinyl. I still don;t care for the turnsignal area. it's so out of context form the rest of the light. everything gunmetal chrome and these starburst chrome lense circles. I may tint the rest of the light to hide that a little. so wait til it warms up so I can work with all that stuff and we'll see what comes out of it
here's they are on the car
