Default Light-up rear reflectors

Pretty cool...also have the red ones available. I wonder if one could hook them up to the rear turn signals. Can anyone read japanese?

It'd be pretty cool if we could get our stock reflectors to light up on the rear bumper...hook em up with the taillights or brake lights. Too bad there's a huge metal casing thing behind each one...

Kind of like rear fog lights? Like on some Audis and others?

just grab some red/white emergency tape, and put it between them. it'll light up when lights hit it.

Yeah. Me too. If you (or anyone else) end up getting these. It would be great to see some pictures. It looks like these lower lights would work very well in conjunction with the TYC led tail light assemblies if they ever come back on the market.

I have to chuckle a little at the 4th advertisement from the top on the left for a 4 light 'blake' lamp kit. Funny how the google translator confuses r's and l's too.

Default $$$

That is just over my budget for this year. I'll wait till my next monetary infusion comes or the price drops some more. :<)
