The link in the first post is the one that doesn't work...I'm not sure what the website was supposed to show.

I think the link that is to Mike's @ LM Retrofit's website at LM Retrofits

I'd like to see what they look like when TSX.Fury gets his tails back....definitely looks like a mod worth doing if the look is right.

Hey guys, I know I know, its been a LOOONG time. I first must apologize on behalf of the company, we are taking way too long. Our orders are backed up, and we haven't been communicating well enough. We are seriously understaffed right now, our work load is through the roof. Still, thats no excuse for such poor service. We are almost done, and yes its been a very long time since we received the tails. The problem is, doing a new set of taillights is more time consuming than doing a regular set of taillights, and it also needs to be squeezed into the regular schedule. As far as the domain name, you guys are correct, there is no need for aeugrx.com anymore so its just lmretrofits.com .

Secondly, I must thank Ben Sears for being the most patient and trusting man I've ever worked with.

There is much more I can say, but the most important part here is my apologies to you all for promising a reasonable release date and not being able to keep it.

Finally, what I'm sure everyone here including me has been waiting for, is pictures. The taillights are not finished, the blinker assembly must still be done, and the wiring in the back needs work, but here is the basic design. We decided to go with nothing fancy, just simple rings, and personally I think it came out great. The two parking/brake rings are the same size. These pictures shouldn't be released because it shows uncompleted work, but I think everyone here would appreciate it. Thanks for being so supportive guys, and we will continue to try and finish ASAP.

Going to be red because even if amber LEDs were used, it would still come out red due to the red lens. Thanks,

I thought these would be ricey, but DAYUM, they look really nice. My money could easily be diverted to the looks department, since I don't know whats going on with Hondata for 05 5ATs

Thanks for keeping us updated.

holy crap... thats awesome!! very exciting. question... how would the brake lights light up? i mean those look like they could be parking lights or something... would they just get brighter for the brake lights? or is the outer most circle have an inner circle or something that lights up?

Looks great as expected from your previous projects aeugrx. I guess I'll volunteer to send my set in next, even the unfinished work pics are convincing enough to get the work done. This is just the design I was hoping for as far as the rings and layout.

So will there be any modifications necessary to the taillight wiring, or will these somehow be plug and play? Just curious what to expect when it comes to installation.

are those white LED's behind the red lenses or red behind red?

I think the amber turn sigs would look sweet with the LED's

would it be an option for some people to reduce the price by not having the reverse light done? i don't have the car so it's not really a concern to me, but i know some of you are concerned about price. no need for reverse light to be leds, really.

lol its okay i like the look of the all red; but the thought of the yellow light shining through... either way with the price of this likely to be well over $300 I dont really wanna add any costs to what it will most likely be...

any eta on the finished product?
