Default Got Some LED Brake Lights

I figured I'd share this with y'all... I recently got a new pair of brake lights for my Mustang. They were $249 for the pair with tax and I got them from the Mustangs Unlimited warehouse here in Georgia. I had seen them in their catalogue and figured they'd look nice on my car, since its black. I don't know if they'd look good on every Mustang, but I think they'd be a nice addition to yellow, red, or white ones.


Before:





After:







When you turn the lights on they are almost as bright as the stock lights are when you're hitting the brakes. Hit the brakes with these new ones and they really light up, making the stock ones seem dim. In fact, if it's twilight or night, they will hurt your eyes when the brakes are on if you stand closer than 10 feet, so they're a good deterrent to people rear-ending you. Safety and style at the same time.

Unfortunately, I don't know what brand these are so I can't tell you how to get them other than ordering from Mustangs Unlimited, but they do ship worldwide so if you don't live in Ga or Ct you're not out of luck.

Not my thing either, looks a little odd. But if you like it, that's all that matters. And if someone's close enough (in a car) that it hurts their eyes, they're gonna rear end you. It's not really gonna deter any better than the stocks anyway..

They look pretty nice! I'd prefer the entire segment cover be red instead of clear, though. I wonder if it is possible to do sequentials with LEDs... I'd have to think not since I don't think there's a sequential harness available for them.

I have to agree as well.

They really don't look to bad. I don't think I'd put them on mine, but they give it a different taste. By the way, where around GA is it located?

To each his own, but good on you for making your Mustang your own. Everyone needs to personalize their ride to their own tastes and you are doing a great job. Keep us updated.

Not my cup o tea.
I dont think the standard sequencers
would work.
Moss sells LED taillights with the proper sequencers
for about $250. And they look better than those
MustangUnlimited ones, IMHO.

Whats up with the bumper stickers? [&:]

@Victoria:
They had a red option and a smoked option, but I opted for clear.

@tmsmith:
It's up I85 north of the perimeter maybe about 10 miles.

@157db:
Getting a GT bumper soon, so those will be gone.
