Cool Raxiom Vector Taillights V2

If anyone is still looking for the Vector taillights for our car years, Raxiom came out with a V2!
Looks better but I noticed that there are functions missing from V1.
Price is $399.99 which isnt too bad considering what V1 cost when they first came out.

Edit: all the functions are there. The website is wrong.

There's nothing new about them, they're the very same vectors sold from the parent company "Spyder Auto"

Yup. The spyder ones, and the V1 versions, had the back up lamp and reflectors on the bottom, and they looked awful with that tacked on look: https://www.americanmuscle.com/raxio...diff-0509.html

These V2s have lost those. And in looking at the 2010-2012 versions, the backup lamp is apparently incorporated into the inner third light, switchback style.

I'm... I really shouldn't, but these really REALLY look good. I would rather they not be smoked though, to be honest. Always with the smoking. Why. I just...

/Oooh... they also don't sequence on flashers and brakes, just the turn signals? Yes please.
//No, I shouldn't... but... no... but...

Houtex.
They really do look a lot better huh. Im sure they will come out with different versions.
And if you read my edit all the functions DO work. The website is wrong. They just copied the text from the 2010 page. Someone on fb confirmed that all the functionality is there.

For what it's worth, I wasn't paying close enough attention towards the differences between the Vector V1 and V2 tail lights, as apparently, I had unintentionally overlooked the differences. Therefore, I stand corrected, as you were right. Anyhow, if Spyder Auto/Raxiom has corrected the previous failure issues for which the V1's were well known for? I'll be interested in purchasing the Vector V2's whenever they become available in Red colored lenses, as I'm also not a huge fan when it comes to smoked tinted tail lights lol.

No worries bro. It's all good.
I hope they do come out with other versions for everyone.
I ordered a set. Will be selling my V1s. Ill be able to get them once the borders open up again (some time in July now). **** you Trudeau!

Wow those do look a lot better than the V1 version. I would buy them but my think I like my Raxiom coyote lights better. But one day if the bug bites me I'll pull the trigger.
