i've got those LED rear lights! think they're great. not fitted them yet, but tested them

I like the small front lamps! but the bigger rear ones are the ones that i like!

How much were the rear lights and where from?

Led Tail Lamps

dont forget as they are led you will need load resistors to stop them flashing too quick

Nice

I've just changed my 7" chrome lamps for a set of black Dominators - much more modern and purposeful look IMHO

I really like the rear lights.

How do the front ones compare to the bigger ones (in terms of light output)?

I have a big set of 7 inchers on the front of mine, and TBH driving at night is a joy, because they are like floodlights!

only every used it in the dark once and i agree, they are fantastic in the dark, better than any halogen tintop ive had to be honest.
I wouldnt think these are that great at night but i will very rarely use it at night so not really too fussed

You have just made my decision far easier!
Two quick questions:
-Are the tail lights sva friendly?
-Where did you get the resistors from?

Thanks!

Dont know if they are SVA friendly TBH, whats the specs to pass SVA with regard to the lights? You would need to add some reflectors.
Got the resistors from the same place, follow the link as above.
