Tried readjusting mine, not digging the fitment of these. Most likely reinstalling OEM taillights.
Thanks for clarifying the wiring, these of course came with no instructions.

It does that light up dance when you turn the car on? Any way to force it to do it?


Great video!
They do the "light up dance" whenever you lock/unlock, start the car, hit the key fob etc.

Really? Fitment was 9.5/10 for me. I had no issues or concerns really.

Yea, the D/S inner trunk portion has a decent gap on the top compared to P/S one. My OCD is killing me.

Hmm, thats odd. Wonder if you can finesse it a little more to even it out...
Aftermarket will never be as good as OEM, unfortunately.

So true, might try 1 more time to readjust. Thinking it might be binding on the outer side where it slip fits over the edge of trunk. Also, I didn't wire them up like the video you posted. Looks like I got my Saturday morning setup.

Any more pics of these on the IOMG car? I am looking into doing these because I don't like the red with green look. Any issues to this date since it has been around 9 months since you installed?

Thanks!

Once or twice during my hand wash had some condensation but would quickly evaporate similar to what happens in headlights no issues

No condensation for mine. My stock tails actually had condensation, so that’s why I switched to GTS

Reminds me of the set from my F80 M3.
Is anyone making a set to mimic the laser tails? I’d be really interested in those!

Lookin good all 😊
