7th Tail LED group buy is coming up!

[JonRoth]

for dark tinted tails BKS charges $649 while Vacar is $415. Both prices include shipping and adapters. I'm not trying to pull anyone away from the BKS group buy but i'm really trying to figure out why so many people are getting the BKS tails which are over $200 more expensive.
If people say "it's only $200 more" well can't you say the same thing comparing BKS to original Golf R OEM tails which are about $750+
Quality looks the same from pictures too.

These lights are OEM. Also, quality is most definitely not the same. Maybe at first, but time will tell.

BKS are selling OEM hella tails not replicas for those that want OEM equipment.

I tried searching for any pictures of GTI's w/ the cherry red tail lights installed. So far, I have only found Dark red tails.

Anyone care to share any pictures of cherry red tails installed? I just placed an order w/ BKS for the cherry reds but I'd like to see what they look like, preferably on a CW.

Just some pics I had on my iPad.

Thanks, looks good with tinted windows, I like the "pop" of the cherry red, looks like it looks good to me along with a quick photoshop to add tint on another gti with cherry red with tinted windows.

Yea, they improve the rear end tremendously.

are the reverse lights going to be LEDs or bulbs? I wonder if it will be an easy fix if something goes wrong.

The reverse lights are halogen bulbs that are type 168 and are replaceable.
