Bumper reflector led mod

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZSNs...layer_embedded


I was on the 9GLancer forum today and saw this neat mod from the Singapore people. It's a rear reflector mod converted to work as a brake, reverse, and turn signal light. Pretty neat.

Yeah hopefully this would reduce the chances of getting rear ended.

Very good idea. I was rear ended by an 18 wheeler in my last car. Maybe this could have helped!

At least the OP's LEDs serve a purpose and still function as a safety device.. plus they look much better than others I've seen, where guys just use covers or tinting on the reflectors. This one looks very clean and tasteful, like it could've came from the factory that way.

No the worst thing I have ever seen, maybe worth it in the rain and snow?

i guess the fact that it's leds running alongside halogens make it look especially tasteless. it's practical, but a bit tacky. if the rear lights are led as well, it would look much more fitting.
