enjoyincubus365 · 04-03-2012, 05:15 PM

They are identical. For some reason I was unable to buy from EurosportGarage so I bought from P4E.

Their pictures make them look darker than they are for sure.

I just ordered a set of these as well. Half the price and it seems identical. I could care less for OEM at the current price points.

I still love mine. No condensation issues either just to update on that.

AndoN · 05-06-2012, 07:53 PM

Sounds great. Should have mine by the end of this week. I will post pics as well.

enjoyincubus365 · 05-06-2012, 08:08 PM

Fantastic!

PCDT99 · 05-06-2012, 09:09 PM

The only thing i would be worried about with these are if the LED lights start to go out after a few months or so.

3/2 and still as pretty as the day I received them!

AndoN · 05-10-2012, 11:17 AM

I received mine yesterday and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I'll post some pics in a few.

Please do!

AndoN · 05-10-2012, 12:23 PM

Disregard the alignment. I managed to drop 2 of the bolts holding the lights so it may not seem flush however it will be once I buy some today.

I'm at work so here is an Iphone picture of what it looks like. Now that I bought these, I can't imagine paying double for OEM.

engagechad · 05-10-2012, 12:24 PM

Looks really clean - I'd love to see some night shots

AndoN · 05-10-2012, 12:33 PM

I will post some tonight. They look really good.

enjoyincubus365 · 05-10-2012, 12:38 PM

I can not see anywhere this question was answered, so better late then never I guess.

What you are describing as "initial start up lights sequence" is cold diagnosis.
It is enabled stock, just leave it on.
With incandescent tails, the cold test pulses are not enough current to heat the filament enough to glow.
With the more efficient LEDs, they do light up with that cold test low current.
Cold diagnosis occurs immediately after engine start.

Nice looking Tails for the money

But u get what u pay for, so if u dont mind having less single red color LEDs and still having to u Halogen bulbs for turning signals, brake lights, or parking lights then this is a great deal and price. But if u want a Full LED tail lights kit with Dual Red / Amber colors and with no Halogen bulbs then u have to pay a bit more for the Valeo tail kit.

These are small things that make Valeo and the Helix tails different from each other. But most people dont have 400 bucks for a set of LED tails so good thing that Helix came out with set for the people who want that same good look but dont want to shell out a arm or leg.......

enjoyincubus365 · 05-25-2012, 11:33 PM

I had the money, but just could not see the value in the more expensive tails. FYI. Reverse is the only halogen function on these.

Damn, this happened to me too. Got mine this weekend and immediately after install right side lights flicker and make a loud buzz. Just emailed them and hopefully it'll work out. Any update on your situation w/ eurosportgarage?
