If its 225 shipped go for it. Thats pretty much the average price from ebay. There is no problem at all installing them i mean they are made for our cars anyway. Just take out the bulbs from your OEM ones an the bulbs from teh JDM ones and plug the OEM bulbes into the JDM housing. Simple as that. For the extra bulb, I just used electrical tape and secured it so it wouldnt bounce around in the housing.

got them from value. paid around 350.
if you look at your current tails, there is a socket for a bulb on the far left of your left, driver side, tails and far right in the driver side. in the jdm ones, those are not drilled out but there is a trace there for you to drill out if you want. i did not drill mines out and just kept the bulbs hanging. for the ones that are already drilled out, i had trouble with fitment...you know how in the oem tails, you have to insert the bulb, twist it to lock it in place? you can't do that with the jdm ones...the tread thingy doesn't match up but i used a razor blade to custom make it.
225 isn't bad man. it probably does not include shipping but its a lot cheaper than what I paid for it.

nope sorrie guys. actualy ive seen the guy on here before..liem?..he posted the lights on the balck market said some guy gave him 250 for them but never followed thru. so he put them on ebay and i emailed him and here we are. this is the cheapest ive ever seen them before and ive been wantin these bad boys for a while but being a high school student i never reallie had the 300 or more to spend on them. but yea thanks for all the input guys... u realie made this decision for me. o um one more thing....the orange thingy in the inspire lights ive seen some with and some w.o do the guys w.o jus clear them with a dremel or somethin along those lines or are they jus different sometimes? sorry for writing a book and to answer your question ...no he cannot

Yeah the Inspire tails still have an orange "cup" that goes around the bulb only. They'll blink amber regardless what bulb you put in there. I opened my tails up and removed them but it definitely wasnt worth doing it. I ended up taking out the superwhites and putting amber bulbs in there anyway. Superwhites are played out IMO.

they pop up from time to time but as of yet i do not think there is a place or site where you can buy them.....and if you could i think it would have to be straight from japan and shipping would b around 90 with like a 2 month delivery time
