The plug that came with the LED taillights will not plug in to your existing wiring haress for the factory taillamp. Not to mention, when I hook mine up when u put into reverse both signal lamp will stay on. I've tried many times to fix the problem But there seems to be no luck at all. I am not trying sway you guys away from this GB. However, just wants u guys to consider before getting it.

This is the page big2sky is referring to: http://www.k4.dion.ne.jp/~vitz/RStail.htm

Make sure you have the body side plug, which also shown on the bottom of the page, then swap the plug and connect the wires in proper order, plug into the LED, then there you go!

Have the LED installed for about a month and no problem at all. Got my neighbor to verify the lights for me when he was passing by, all lights working fine.

Even if you don't have the JDM plug, you can just put all the wires out from the old one, then plug the wires directly to the LED. They shouldn't come out easy even without the plug. I assume you just have some wrong connection so your lights are screwed up.

Let us know how it goes!

I bought my JDM taillights from BoomPlusToys for about the same price as the group buy. Check out the vendors' section for their thread.

Hey guys I need a HELP installing the JDM Tails. I've searched this thread, but I'm still a little confused . Right now I'm working on the drivers side tail. I already have the wires out of the connector, had to destory connector lost my patience . If one of you guys could just post a picture of the wiring of your connector, that would really help me out . If not can someone look at there connectors and tell me exactly where each wire goes in the connector. I just dont want to experiment with the wiring to find out where to put the wires, when I can't seperate them from the connector. Thanks in advance for your help.

Use a translate for this page to figure out which color wire from the body side match with which color wire on the taillight side: http://www.k4.dion.ne.jp/~vitz/RStail.htm#

I like to purchase a set, but Is it legal in California?

Not legal in the USA without the side reflectors.

Nice, man!

My only complaint about mine is that I don't see them in operation!!!

[acdaazn]

Hmm.... after looking at so many pages, can someone with the red RS-LED tails confirm the existence of reflectors, because from looking at bigsky2's picture on page 23, it seems like there are reflectors on the side of the lamp.
Could someone get a flashlight and flash it to make sure, please??

[Doc Zaius]

No refelctors. The reflectors are built into the bumper of the JDM RS (and EDM TS)... just like the pic in your sig. So with our bumper, to be perfectly legal here, retroreflectors should be stuck onto the car.
