I searched and searched for LED tail lights that illuminate the whole entire tail light (except the reverse light) I cannot find one...:crazy:

Is there no such thing? theres plenty of LED tail lights on ebay but they dont light up the whole tail light, what the hell is that reflector piece up top of most of these tail lights? for just looks? why couldn't one manufacturer put some LED's up top.:33:

I was driving behind an escalade yesterday and im loooking at those tailights thinking "I want those tailights!" but I cant find them for our years.:banghead:


the shape doesent look too far off, has anyone atempted to do a clean Install?

The reflector is required to meet U.S. motor vehicle safety standards. Most of the ones used in the aftermarket LED lights do look pretty corny, to be sure, but it's easier/cheaper for them than to mold it into the lens like OEM lenses have.

As far as who to go to for drop in LEDs MOBS has turned over the forum distribution to myself for the USA and Chris (darkrider) for Canada. The reflector is required by law. They have to have a non illuminated reflector somewhere on the back of the vehicle. As far as a full led tail lamp I have a set I got off of eBay for $100 on my truck.

I hate jacking threads but yours look like the the whole area around the reverse is clear. Mine is a deep red with clear just where the illumination is. The whole edge of the housing is deep red. And yes mine are very very lightly tinted. That's what I loved about them. I just wish they were brighter.

Im looking for something like this. that shape is not too far off from OBS tail lights

Im wondering if I can take the guts out of that one and incorporate it into the guts of an OBS tailight.

that sounds way too easy.
