Not sure if it was posted, but found some more 05 Mustang stuff on this website called MOSS Mustang. But here is a link for LED Taillights. Seems way to pricey....

Ok I want these too. I just have to wait until after I get the projector headlights, the park bench spoiler, the coffee can mufflers, and some Uncle Ben's :scratch:

APC had some LEDs on their car at SEMA, but even the units on the show car were of terrible quality--there was already moisture building up inside them.

Maybe if the housing was black instead of silver they might appeal to me a little more. But the ones in the picture just do not look good in my opinion. Besides the fact the $339 will buy one heck of alot of tail light bulbs.

For the pricey of the ricey, you can get an SCT II or a Predator, adding performance instead of sushi to the car...

Can't they just do LED's in a regular tail light? Like APC's, but of good quality. Those look like gigantic costume jewelry rubys (aka hideous).

I like the 'look' of LEDs from a distance- they really show up like on the new caddy or the old mark VIII center taillamp panel...but the ones that look like led's instead of a neat crisp 'glow' turn me off...and in my opinion, anything with a clear/chrome look will always look better hidden in a box somewhere far away...like maybe somewhere in asia

I dont know if the reflectors in the OEM mustang taillamps will work with just the LED replacement lamps, If they do, I might change to them (plus sequential) but I kinda think they wont look right due to the clear red lens instead of diffuser lens like caddy uses. The 'laser like' glow of cadillac taillamps I like a lot- and if sequential, think the mustang would look even better at night- but if it has a ricey polkadot look, not for me...I have a set of bulbs in the garage(got for the 65 gal, hoping to make 'brighter- but backup lamp blocks ALL the LED light) maybe I'll throw them in tomorrow to see if the look ok- seeing one side normal/one side LED would be nice for comparison.

H E L L NO.

Those tail lights look like garbage. The sad thing is that someone has actually purchased those monstrosities. Anyone installing those lights should have the pony torn off the front of the car.
