IPCW LED Tail Lights or Just Tint Darker

I would like to mod my tail lights on my 2010 Silver Ice Metallic HHR. Are the IPCW LED Tail Lights worth the money? I see some on ebay for $209. I also wonder if anyone has used the overlays and if they are decent.

Thanks.

I have the Bermuda Blacks. They look great. If you ever reverse in the dark you will be very impressed with how bright they are.

On my first HHR I had my tails sprayed. They looked nice and functioned fine:


On my second HHR I installed the IPCW LED lights. They look great and function great:

I have Bermuda Blacks. I am completely impressed with them. Hella-bright, too.

I got the LEDS because I really liked the look of all four lights being on at night.

I have to admit those Bermuda Blacks look good! Are they easy to install?

You won't regret IPCW tali lights

I have the red ones, to look as similar to factory colors as possible while upgrading to LED technology. I also put 4 LED lights in my high-mount 3rd brake light. I do NOT plan to convert anything else to LED (I don't want single LED bulbs which put out pin-point light vs the wider conventional bulb's diffuse glow). Three out of my four tail lights were significantly scratched when I got my (used, previously repossessed) car, and so HAD to replace them with something. I love the LEDs, and I feel that they are more visible and a style statement.

The other modifications I strongly suggest are the others listed in my signature (other than the center caps which were purely for appearance and specific to paint color).

Almost as easy as putting gas in it! Very easy to install.

Very easy to install and really the way to go IMNSHO. Cops have never given me a crossed look with them versus tinting the tail lights. Install time was about 20 minutes - Oh wait - that included a beer afterwards
