Raxiom Smoked Aero Tail Lights Installed

Alright, finally back in port from a 4 month deployment, I've got a whole host of new mods i'll be installing over the next week or two. First up is the Raxioms.

Installation was VERY easy, you re-use the bulbs and wiring harness, so highly recommend. after installation I think the overall look of the rear is alot cleaner than stock. The tint looks fantastic and the lights are still very much bright enough even during the day. I've had them on two days and already had more compliments about the lights than I've had about the car!

Ya, I was thinking about using a vinyl overlay tint on the third, but it does blend really well without it

Are the new ones LED? Because althought the stockers are not great-looking, they are LED, which is a great safety feature...

You use the same bulbs....so yes, it's still LED.

I can have a custom bracket made to fit under the lower fascia, but that's expensive. Only got about 8 months left here, won't kill me to leave it there for a little while longer
