Sweet write up!!! Those things were dissappointing! The 32 Led tower style 5 center bulb actually looked kinda neato!

I'm not a fan of LED tail lights anyways. Thanks for the comparison SoCal.

Thanks for the write-up. As usual, it's the reflector design that's critical in lighting applications.

Exaaaaactly! We may have to get with a manufacturer and design our own reflector with integrated LED's. That might take a while...

But is it really worth the effort just to make your HHR look like a Japanese import or school bus?

I think you know me better than that CH.
If we turn out a lens setup, you can bet it will compliment the vintage lines of the HHR - not make it look like a rocket wanna-be. We're just thinking about people who want to customize their vehicles, and LED taillights is one area many people will want to upgrade.

Still...it may or may not happen.
