    I bought knock off spyder LED rear tail lights. They looked really good but only lasted 9 months and the LEDs went out on one side. Ebay only covers 60 days and doesn't sell them in single replacements. Found a stock looking set that I tinted myself with wrap that use incandecent bulbs. Don't want to go thru the LEDs going out again. Spyder branded are better quality I'm sure but I have heard the same thing happening to them. Nothing is worse than seeing LEDs burnt out or flickering. It looks stupid lol.

    I'd suggest wrapping them. I tried the vht nightshade spray paint and didn't have the patience for it so it came out looking completely black. And wrap can be peeled off easily and you could find a shop to wrap them for probably pretty cheap professionally. You can also pick whatever darkness you want. :thumbsup:
