good eye. It is slightly more orange. Actually the sedan LEDs are almost a perfect match for the horizontal LEDs. It's the main LED ring that appears more red than all the other ones. I think it'll be more consistent once I put the red outer lense cover back pain.

I don't know if they're all the same watts. I powered up everything on one 9V battery in the pictures.

Do you have any photos of the Sedan tails opened up? whats the reflector like in it? is there a piece with recessed holes in it like on the inside ring of the coupe tail? It must make powering the tails easy with a 9V batt. I recently did a color mod project with Visibiliti on our cars, and we had to power with a 12V rail from a comp supply. Wasnt bad, but the power supply always seemed to be in the way. Can you post more pics?

Sorry, forgot to reply.

Here's a pic of the bezels and the LED array:


I'm sealing everything up. It's taking awhile since I only seal portions at a time. I'm waiting on some extra wire harnesses to arrive in the mail..

wow very cool, can't believe i missed this update for TWO WHOLE DAYS. lol.

It seems like the "tunneled" portion of the 06+ tails has less depth than on the 03-05 tail ring? Or is it just an illusion from the angle of the pictures?
