TECHNOSTALGIA LED REAR LIGHTS

Ok there has been some bad stories on a few different threads but I am wondering if people are posting the good and happy stories. I want to hear both sides . I am thinking about finally jumping in and need a little push

Go to the apex thread about the led lights. Those are the techno ones. Towards the end I have 2 videos of mine. I really like the way they turned out. Aside from the pain in the neck bezel removal and the pesky outside light outside nuts install was easy. All of this and more on other thread. Worth the money IMO

If there is a problem Todd at TECHNOSTALGIA will take of you as he has for the very small percentage of others who experienced a problem. I will be installing mine this weekend and I cannot wait. I would say go for it, unless you want to see more videos?

Go for it. IMO it is the best way to make your Camaro stand out from the rest.

I saw Todd's YouTube post almost a year ago about them and he told me they were coming, and so I waited, and waited. Then I got them and had to send them back for a fix, and now I have them again.

To be honest the video stinks and hoses the lights. Unfortunately the iPhone is my only av equipment. Lights look way better in person. Although not a true after burner as I have been told, it looks pretty darn good to me. Aside from my documented installation challenges (would have been great to see Chase's bezel video before last Friday night) installation very easy. Rareslick added a good point about resistor plates very last before u button everything up. I haven't experienced any issues with them.

As Supercharged2SS has indicated in his installation instructions, , you just have to take your time. Before installation you can hook up everything to make sure all works before tearing the car apart as that is what I am going to do first.

Will do. I am using a 14 mega pixel camera to take the pics and video so hopefully it will show everything ok as it is not HD.

We are getting ready to shoot a full HD video as soon as the car is back in one piece (totally unrelated to the tail lights ).

I just finished my install and test tonight. I had some problems that you may have read about on the APEX tread yesterday. I called Todd and he overnighted the replacement part and i got them about 415 today. The parts fixed my dead light issue and they work great and are really a kick ass mod. Todd will talk you thru any problems you may encounter. A word to the wise... Read and Re-read the Instructions before you start the install and be sure to watch the vidio on the bezel removal. you will not be disapointed. They are super cool.
