Seems pretty decent, sort of like the EDM tails, and LED too.

Have any pics of them on your car lit? They dont look bad at all. Better than gay altezzas or even blacked out lights. Almost like 04 lights but better bc of the LEDs.

They are lit in that picture, but the brakes are not applied. I dont have any good pics at night but ill post one, but they are brighter then stock. Ive had them since the begining of september.

If that's without the brake applied, I would actually think that's annoying. I've flashed my high-beams at people for brake lights that bright.

Implying the first picture is lit without brake second/with. (notice the third "brake light" on the wing )

And flashing your brights at them... little extensive don't ya think?

I'm confused, why does reading own me?

And, if someone's brake lights are THAT bright, they DESERVE a flash. Blinding a driver when you brake, is just stupid.

I'm assuming you were talking about the second picture he put up... and the brakes are obviously being applied.

... I could be wrong though... wouldn't be the first time... you know what they say about assuming. *shrugs*

agreed brake lights dont need to be bright. they just need to be bright enough that a driver can see the difference between tail lights and brake lights. with the 3rd brake light to show braking they really only have to be slightly brighter imo

Well, I re-read what I posted and I can see how it could be misinterpreted. I did mean that the first picture would be a "clue" as to how bright the brakelights would be upon being applied, and that I would generally give the driver a little "feedback" for his/her poor choice in brake lighting. On some of the newer Nissans, they use LED brake lights, and I make sure to note my feelings towards them, when they apply their brakes.

I find it as a serious issue, when people have brake lights that are as strong, if not stronger, than high-beams. It's quite hazardous to run brake lights THAT strong. Rear-end collision anyone?
