Default Sequential Taillight Question

On the sequential tail lights, I have found 2 different manufacturers. They areboth comparable in price, only difference I see is the install. Does anyone have an opinion on which one is better? Seems to me the Silverhorse ones would be easier to put in, but looking for you input.

I just ordered mine from American Muscle today, I believe they're the CDC's. Install on all Sequentials are pretty much the same with the exception of the splice-in type. Also I think there was a difference for the early 2005 models.

I got mine for 131+ change on AM

To the OP,

If your 2005 is an early build, i.e. before 10/05, you may want to check these. I just installed em last week, and love em. You cannot beat the price. I will edit in a link to my install for you....

mlcrycc: hey thanks for those links. Very informative writeup on the install, so simpleeven I can do it My car was built in 6/05 so that ^^ should work fine. Can't beat the price either!
Have you ever had any issues with them? Does it burn the bulbs out faster having sequentials?

My pleasure. I cannot speak to the bulb life, as I have only had them in for a week.... No issues thus far......

I will jump in here too I got mine a year ago at
http://www.webelectricproducts.com/products.htm
Top Quality Easy to Install and they give you a return postage paid return box to get a refund after you send your stock ones back to them If you want to. I can not say anything about the others but when I got mine they looked like brand new factory parts very nice.

I've got the Webelectric kit that is shown in yellow tang's post. I bought the kit that requires splicing. It was a lot cheaper, but it was easy. They included all of the parts and it didn't take long. I really thought that it was kinda fun.

One more option for you:

meter4it.com

They're a splice-in kit, but the install is really easy (instructions are very well written and it really just isn't hard to do) and they come with the oh-so-cool "chase" mode, as well as the option to switch between regular mode, chase mode, and normal sequential mode. The website has videos and everything so you can check out how the different modes compare.

Definitely worth a look.

I've got the chase mode on my Mustang, and people love 'em. One guy actually followed me home from a coffee shop once to tell me how cool they were and ask where I got them. If that's not the definition of a head-turner, well...
