I dislike how the housings in the second link bulge out on the bottom. I owned a set from eBay for a while and eventually sold them. Thankfully they never gave me the "hyper flash" but I couldn't stand looking at them after a while.

In my opinion, the Harley tail lights look the best out of anything to replace ours with. Good luck

yea im not to hip with the bulge either but they clostly represent the OEM tails ,, the top one doesnt have the chrome reverse all the way around like the bottom one does , ill prolly end up getting the top one

I'm not even sure why that bulge exists but needless to say it looks awful. The first ones look quite good. But as with all aftermarket lights, I always worry about durability, especially with those LEDs.

I have had a set in my truck for 5 years now...no problems...just don't buy cheap ones..

The top ones are the exact ones I got, I tried to smoke them with VHT to darken them and the surface on the cheap ones must be really porous and made the night shades look absolutely terrible.

I had them in for about 4-5 months and now the passenger side running lights quit working. So I just put my oems back on and tinted them...

Needless to say very disappointed for $110 bucks. But some have had good luck, but I sure haven't.

This is what mine looked like after I cleaned the night shades off with 3m headlight restorer and all the hairline cracks became visible after the night shades got into them.

I tried removing Nite Shades from an OEM tail light once and it didn't go well. Not sure if the lenses are at fault there.

Well I used night shades remover by VHT, so I would like to think it should work
