bottom.

Do you have pics of the lights on?

LED's look really nice when they are set up correctly.

EXACTLY, BOTTOM ONE IS BETTER!!! They all look cheap on the pics, they should buy better cameras for taking pics - thats what I say. Bottom ATW, it's LED, and from the placement of those LEDs it'll look like lines at night!!!

bottom, it actually looks like it has LED's like every other car now. Love that individual LED bulb look.

what do the clear tails you have been offering look like in comparison to these?

Those lights in the bottom pic are hideous.

I like the LED's better. If everything else is the same, I'd prefer if the LED's were set up to look like lines, but I think LED tails are really needed to produce that 'luxury' effect that I'd be looking for if tails were replaced.

The top mainly because it's OEM looking. It's 1 LED bar away from being virtually identical looking to the OEM Hella Celis lights and they even appear like LED lightbars when the parking lights are illuminated.

Looks slightly different...the backup light is not angled, or is that an optical illusion

It's an optical illusion or bad camera angle.

If we can get these tails for the price we think we can get them for, it will not be $169, but it will not be $300 either, I think $199 shipped is reasonable IF we get them for the price I expect.

:dunno

I looked at my tails again, and the backup tail is not angled. Hmm, either way, they look nice for $125. They are made by Option Racing.
