Default Sequential Tail Light / Better than Advertised

In about 5 minutes I installed my plug-and-play sequential stop lights and they are COOL.

Not only do I get the sequence for the turn signals but due to the LED's lighing quicker than the incadescent bulbs you get a true "sequential" look for the stop lights.

Very easy and a real nice touch to my AE.

Default Lighting Upgrade

Who's the vendor, Whats the cost, Did it require two purchases or does the upgrade handle the entire rear tail light sysytem

Thanks

I only purchased the stop light unit from the Forum Store for $109.00.

Because the LED's respond to voltage quicker than incadescent bulbs you get the total sequence look.

I will somehow post a vid soon.

I saw this in action for the first time this week. I like the look but don't think I'll spend $100 to get it.

I got both the sequential kit and the brake light pulser kit. I will be installing them today. I'll see if I can post some pic's later. I am getting more internet savy these days. We'll see how savy later.

Stand behind your car. Have someone hit the brakes and watch wich of the five lights comes on first. It will be the HMSL (center mounted stop light) that responds first. LED's respond quicker than incadescent's.
