Default Aftermarket Tail lights?

Does anyone have experience with either Spyder or Option racing LED tail lights? I like them both and can't really decide. Help me out people!

Have you had any problems with the lenses getting condensation?

I like the smoked lenses but I'm afraid the local PD will say they aren't bright enough.

I have those ones on the right... the Spyder ones on my Black H3. They look great, and have gotten several compliments. Easy to install. I would also recommend getting white LED reverse bulbs, rather than using the stock reverse bulb. Just looks better

I'll try to get some pics tonight and post tomorrow. I've had them on about 2 months now, and no issues so far. The fit was good, and I've gotten several compliments on them. The 'wrap around' light tubes for the side marker lights is pretty neat. I've washed my truck with a pressure washer, and haven't had any water intrusion.

Thanks Halo! Pressure washer is the ultimate test so it sounds good to me!

As far as the eBay purchase I think a seller w/ a high rating would be a safe bet, and pay through PayPal, any issues and you can initiate a case against the seller, I've Had to do it every now and than, and usually they favor on the buyers side...

You could get poorer customer service at a wholesaler and never be able to get anyone on the phone... Just saying...

Here's where I got mine. eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices
Dagkana is right, PayPal gives you a good advocate should you need someone to help with a problem. E-bay sellers don't want to get a bad reputation.
Got home a little to late for picture taking tonight, but I promise to get some posted this weekend, but if you go to the site I just posted, they are shown on a white H3, which is what I have, so it'll give you a good idea of what they look like installed.
