Title: Rear Lights
Post by: SeyiiOluwa on November 30, 2015, 04:36:24 pm
So I've got standard rear lights and I will be buying new ones soon. I'm still unsure as to whether I want R32/Ed30 smoked lights or the OEM LED lights.

I'm leaning more to the OEM side but I wanted to know if the little red light on the outers exist on any of them. Initially I thought it was a reflection but then seeing this red light come through a tint made me question it

Would it be possible for me to achieve this ? Sorry if the question seems daft (or has already been asked)

Am I correct to say that these are reflecting from the sun?

The bottom two strips are reflectors, there isn't a light at the bottom of them  :smiley:

Hope that helps..  Didn't really know how to word it, having a brain fart
