Yeah thats pretty much the one and only thing keeping me from buying one of the spider LEDs. too many LEDs that can fail. It only takes a couple to throw off the whole setup. Not to mention the really annoying LEDs that blink when they fail lol.

I just got mine in, and its safe to say, they are definitely brighter than stock!! Theses with the LED third brake light make for an intensely bright combination.

My only gripe is the fact that they are angled inward a bit, and do not fire straight back, but the stocks so the same thing. It wasnt too hard getting them in, but you do have to be a bit more rough than you would want to be with a pair of $70 bulbs.

Now it doesn't even look like the original.

I don't think RR wants to put in the time for those tail lights as a GB. If you search you'll find a thread about how much it cost him and how long it takes vs how much he could hope to charge for it... he'd basically be working for third world wages.

Yeah dude, nothing beats RRs custom LED tails. I have to say though, i was a bit of a skeptic before i bought my 7-led bulbs, but now that i have them, i think theyre pretty awesome..next best thing to doing a full custom job IMO
