I think it would help if someone like Patrick can see if the pipe p/n is available out of the lacrosse, it has a ton of ambient lighting...

Is there that much of a difference? The ones i put in seem to be fine, are these Tyco pipes significantly better?

I believe the tyco product has the reflective stripe molded into the side of the pipe, making the light output more consistent from one end to the other. It's difficult to replicate...

We've found an alternate manufacturer for these and they look pretty good!

Can they handle a slight bend? And how much for the length of the dash?

The normal rod can handle a slight bend, but, we also found a version that is very flexible.

This is just the rod. The color just depends on the LED that you light it with.

We'll put up more info on this later today in the sponsor area to be legal.

Tyco was and is the manufacturer, There still being made right now, if it was not made then no new car will have them in the doors, Is GM that stopped them from let them out to there distributors and this is why, $$$$$$$$$$$ and that is it they make a lot on you buying a 2SS or a 2LT. the pipes i have now work Like the Old ones you get 98% light transmitted true the pipe.

When you do, do you mind posting a new topic about it? I (and other members) only go on the forum on my mobile app, so it would be easier for me to find it and subscribe to it that way.
