They are from Eagle Day, Inc. Give them your vin and they match the paint color. Apply with rubberized glue. Had them on for over 2 years and no problems. But I am still interested in the headlights that Slider is working on he did an outstanding job of getting the tail lights made.

+1 for they'd never have been made were it not for his early and continued indefatigably relentless efforts.

i'd really like to see these lamps made for the front. then i would have no choice but to pair them with the techart gt style bumper copy, replete with front drl's. would be sweet, and look highly individualized.

Actually he takes a stock light and pops off the lens to install his projector beams. Similar stock look. I believe Slider is going for a complete redesign.

The guy I was talking to is from the US, but he has been working in Japan. His name is Fred. He did the design and fabrication for the Boxter lights that everyone was so happy with - I have seen those in person. They do require removing the lens to rework the interior and install new projectors.

Slider you are the man. I believe you will do it. I am so happy with the LED tail lights you made happen. I know it takes a lot of work. People just don't give enough positive feedback. Thank you for your effort.
