The Official LED Tail Light Thread

[Hugh@EuropaParts]

I know that there are a ton of options as far as LED tail lights are concerned and would love to hear some feedback / see pictures of your current setup!

I have the JOM Smoked Tail Lights and they're absolutely fantastic. They make the car seem much more modern and they still flow with the car. The only problem I've had with them was how brittle the lenses are. My friend threw a tennis ball and it hit my inner right light and completely cracked the lens. Other than that, they're fantastic, look great, and if you want the all red OEM look the Red Lamin-X keeps the Orange indication but masks the clear part, and keeps the darkness of the lenses as well. I'll put pictures up in a second.

A member on here (AJacksA4) put red lamin-x over the entire set, heres what they turned out to look like

[jamerican1]

I love these! If I could find them for a decent price plus some red laminx it would be perfect!

Damn if this car doesn't make me want a sedan.... ALMOST! That's HAWT!!!

[AKO]

What exhaust/tips is that ajacksa4?

[drumnjuny]

lololol okay bulletproof windows are the next mod for the B7

if we get enough interest, maybe we can convince phil to make a limited run? problem is they are stupid expensive to make (if i remember correctly that's what phil said, like 2 years ago when i called dibs, that was why he only made 3? or 4? sets of the taillights) so maybe we can drive the cost down enough to get him interested with 4-5 people.

what do you think phil? i would love a set of LED tails that don't stop lighting up when its hot outside. need some real quality products that only phil can provide haha

[AJacksA4]

They're Magnaflow 14816 mufflers. I had a shop stagger the tips for me

[Hugh@EuropaParts]

10 sets and I will personally get Phil to make them...

[Noel Artiles]

Had the JOM's and they burned the hell out. Barely used as well. I took them off and went back to stock. Might tear them apart and see if I can upgrade some of the components. Let's see how that goes.

[drumnjuny]

need a price estimate before people will commit... phil do you have one handy? i think he also wanted to keep them relatively limited lol so they are rare.

i saw a set in Las Vegas last year that i thought were for sure Phil's

[Peenge]

Dectane/Depo LED tail lights! The fitment was not spot on.. But no error messages or other problems so far!

[jaycurn]

10 sets and i will personally get phil to make them...

take my money!!

[drumnjuny]

seriously, take my money too. Phil's blow all these out of the water!! (no offense guys, but his are not like any other LED tails i've seen for the b7 at least)

if someone trolls hard enough they can probably find a picture on here.


EITHER WAY I HAD DIBS LIKE 2-3 YEARS AGO AND I STILL RETAIN IT LOL

[musasabi]

Since I'm somewhat of a noob... I totally want to see a picture of Phil's LED tails. Gotta see what all the hype's about. ;)

[drumnjuny]

i dont' think anyone in this thread except phil and I actually know what his tails look like lmao...

[drumnjuny]

haha you beat me to it. was about to post the picture from his taillights thread, back when he was actually making them in 2009



i really wanted to post the video, but it turns out the video has been renamed or deleted from phil's photobucket acct

[fly300kts]

lol
I tried (trust me) to find new suppliers: mot of them want crazy quantity to launch production or crazy prices for few units, not making economical sense.
I simply stopped searching and 10 unique sets are still around...and working flawlessly, I am the proof

Phil

[drumnjuny]

WANT!

[drumnjuny]

damnit phil stop teasing me

[musasabi]

The bolder lateral lines of those tail lights would make the RS4's wide rear track look even better.

[Cantalk]

Ok, now I'm interested. How much did these used to go for?

[fly300kts]

They were in the $500 range, 5 yrs ago
A lot of labor and wiring was involved

Phil

[drumnjuny]

only $500?? jesus christ
