Thumbs up LED Tail lights

Ok - LED lights are installed.

Here what i found out.

1. Fit is not exactly OEM - a little loose on the side opposite the mounting screw. Nothing that a grommet or something like that can fix.

2. Look nice and not ricey.

3. Flashers -

with lights on, quick flash (turn signal)

with lights off - normal flash (turn signal)

normal flash - emergency flashers - lights on or off

4. Overall brightness is brighter than stock.

I give these the thumbs up.

Hope this helps. I attached some pictures.

With the taillights lights on, are the amber turn signals lit as well? I ask this because I usually see the amber lights on when the the taillights themselves are on in many pictures by different vendors on Ebay.
