$500?!? I know there's labor involved with opening the lenses, but the LED circuits are not hard to wire in. $500, or any of the other prices I've seen for LED tails, is just crazy. Why does everything for the RX8 have to be so damn expensive?

Ive literally had a set of tails apart now (behind the red lens) for about 6 months. All i need is a circuit board with two rings of leds.. I just dont know how to wire together leds. Seems like a simple project if someone would just sell a pre made board that fits in there for cheap.

..cough cough...lebren or rotaryrasp....

unlikely to happen. RR did the tail light GB before and noted what a pain in the *** it is. you cant imagine unless you've done a lot of soldering. be better off getting a schematic contracted out for a small run

oh, what?!? so they're white w/ the running lights/headlights on but blink yellow w/ the turn signals, then go back to white or off depending on headlights?? uh, that might be the coolest thing ever.

looks like they're side marker has white and yellow too.
