LED Tails???

Has anyone ordered/installed the LED Black Tails??? Thinking about getting them for my '06 sedan. It is hard to tell the brightness from the ebay pics. Comments (good/bad) appreciated!

Thanks!

these ones?




I don't know if anyone on here has them but I've seen some cars from torontomazda3.com with them and they are very nice and bright.

There are a few LED replacements for the center high mount brake light as well that are bright

Yeah, the black ones are what i'm probably going to go with. They seem simple enough, just wanted to make sure they don't turn out to be duds that will get me pulled over for not being bright enough; will probably add the LED replacement for the third brake light too. Thanks!

Anyone else please feel to submit some feedback as well

I would just go with the LED tails directly from Mazda. They make the tails for the hatch and the sedan. Their a little expensive but definitely worth it.

^^ they do look nice, but they aren't bright. The aftermarket ones are crazy

Do you mean the aftermarket ones are better? I'm buying my first 3 hatch in a week or two (we traded one at my dealership and I can get one hell of a deal on it) I saw a 3 last week with angel eyes (BMW style) headlights. Anybody know about them?

I don't know if they are better quality (in terms of.. lasting longer, not getting condensation in them, etc) but instead of a weak ring of what looks like 10 LEDs max for the brake light, it's a big array with 30+ LEDs.

Plus they look awesome in black (see pic I posted above). I'm soooooo anti aftermarket taillights on the Protege, but if we had options like that I would totally rock them!
