Anybody purchased the aftermarket tail lights on ebay?

[Krunk Man]

After going through about $500 of oem tail lights i think im going to try out the ebays ones for $130-160


Anybody have these?
How bright are they? Come with the bulbs?

Any pics with them installed would be great. I searched but couldnt find anything.

Here is the set im looking at.

Pete I too was looking at tail lights... Those look nice... I can't make up my mind between these two:

I just orderd the bottome set from x3racing

$151 Shipped.

Cant beat the price, i didnt even notice those 2 where different till i saw the inner light has the back up fogs switched around.

Also the clear part is different. The ones from K2 have vertical lines in the clear area, the one from x3racing seem to have a checker board reflective glass. If I buy them I would put stealth bulbs in the clear area so you can't see the yellow bulbs. That is a great price indeed. Please keep us posted with your thoughts after you get them stalled. Pictures installed would be perfect with them on and off.

Wow great deal! For those with amber tail lights, this is a great OEM alternative and makes the X5 look years newer!

Ambrosius, i'll keep you updated, will have pics early next week.

yes. I have fitted them, see my post for pics. etc, but also please put the silver indicator bulbs in, makes a lot of difference.
