So one of my brake lights blew
so i ordered 2 new eurolight LED bulbs (like $17.99 for 2) not that bad i gess like how often do you replace the tail light bulbs. but i have the nightshade black spray on my tail lights and the leds hardy show thought like unsafe cant be used. they are junk compared to the stock ones. and the stock ones work fine.
One would think the LEDs would be brighter than the stock but no...... so now i have a new set of LED tail light bulbs that i cant return and i still only have working brake light. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Sry to say but the Eurolight bulbs are eurotrash. You have to fine on Ebay or the internet somewhere, HID LED bulbs. May take some time but they put out a brighter light than the Eurolight ones.
Also $18 for 2 is way over priced too.

where did you get those from, I was thinking of up grading as when I fix the trunk on my car I want something more relyable.

Did you get the Red ones or White ones? The Red will not show through the red lens at all.

Yeah, I think you are going to have to trade them out for a White Set. The Red will no show through the red lens.
