Ok I know the tails are not LEDs, but from the looks of the pics in this post perhaps the rear running lights are? They seem awfully bright for incandescent.

As stated in me other reply, LED tails will be my first aftermarket hunt (along with the other stuff I refuse to roll into a GMAC like engine covers and Hurst shifters).

I think what you are seeing is the reflection from the flash of the camera making the lens look extremely bright. I believe the entire rears are standard lights. I also believe that was confirmed on here somewhere previously.

I have not. I'm just a fan of LED tails. I think they look better/brighter and more "futuristic" and "luxury" than regular incandescents. Plus the 2010 Mustang will have them and I won't, and that simply won't do.

The Camaro isn't going to have a few things the Mustang does. One of which is the stench of defeat. I can live with that

Wait that means the camaro will have the stench of defeat and the mustang wont. I think thats the opposite of what you meant

You are correct CamaroPete. I'm the one that took those photos and in that particular shot, I was over at the Toyota booth as I was making my way around the room and couldn't help but look back at the Cam in the distance. Just could'nt keep my eyes off of it. Anyway, from that distance, the camera was zoomed and thought it needed flash and did. This produced the effect you see in the photo. Looks really cool even though it was purely accidental. It really would look cool like that on the streets at night. That car did have the RS package which does change the rear tails on it but I doubt it will look like that. It is prolly going to look more like a smoked glass tail look wouldn't you say?
