That looks bad imo, but thats my opinion. I'd rather have a thin circle of leds going around the outter edge of the circular portions of the taillights. Or circles full of leds, not just 3 or 5 lines that don't look right...

Whatever floats your boat!

Yeah doesn't look super cool I guess, but hell of a lot cheaper than paying $700 for a new set of led lamps lol.

I bought and installed the spiderlites. Wish I saved that $60...

They look wierd, and after a few days, a couple of the LEDs went out, and they looked even worse.

Then the real kicker was, LED bulbs in the tails was causing all 3 of my ACD lights to come on after several minutes of driving. Odd yes, but removing the LED bulbs and going back to stock bulbs fixed the ACD light issue.
