    Good comparison shot of the stock v Red/Clear LED rear lights.

    Red LED rear Lights

    Subtle but give a nice modern touch to the rear end ?

    cool, but looks like reverse will show a red light !! Where’s the clear bit for reverse?



    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?

    Nice comparison, must say I do like the LED ones. They would look great on Shadow Black ?

    Does the LED lighting rely on just the coloured lens or is there different colour on the LED bulb?

    How bright are they in the day? I watched a video on YouTube and they looked super dim to the point of being dangerous

    Left light is factory. Right light is the LED.

    @ Bobcat mate, thats just not normal !! Matt.B i think its the smokey joe dark tinted ones that could be dangerous in the daylight.

    The one on the right doesn’t look anywhere as bright and clear as the one on the left.

    With LEDS it’s about the viewing angle.

    Straight on / driving seated height their super bright.

    Hmmm still not sure. I want led rears just not 100% on these. I like the autobeam led bulbs but they look way too bright.

    Agree Matt, I wonder where you would stand with insurance if you were rear ended in bright sunlight and the bloke behind said he did not see your brake lights light up?? waste of time the whole lot to me, just for other drivers to look at too!! I mean, who gets to see sequential rear indicator lights? bloke behind, does he care? no, is he impressed? doubt it. Innit!

    Got to agree with you, a bit gimmicky for me, I think a standard well cared for car will always command more money, because its no bee played about with. I know you could remove all these items, if you have added lots its quite a job and do you really want too or have the heart too when your in the mind to sell. I know there will be opposing views to mine but its a fact bog standard usually sells especially one owner with full history.
