I just installed a set from Digi Tails I'll post up a video as soon as I can.
They look like a quality set of boards. I have been waiting over a year for them to be released.
Lets hope they last.

That's a real bummer Brad. Mine have functioned flawlessly, however I'm not overly impressed by visibility in daylight/sunlight. If you're in the shade, or it's dark out, they're bright as hell, but in direct sunlight they're less than impressive. Id go as far to say barely visible. Not sure if it's specific to these boards, or just an LED problem in general.



Ya I hope they do! Do they have a sequential option?

According to their website, yes ...

"DIGI-TAILS is the only fully sequential LED kit.  We utilize advanced technology by lighting LED’s in a fluid and sweeping pattern, rather than merely lighting up blocks of LEDs.

DIGI-TAILS allows you to choose standard operations or our fully sequential feature with a flip of a switch, conveniently located on every board."

Well I couldn't live with the stock dull bulbs so I just pulled the trigger on the Digitails set up like Scott has. Hope they are more durable?
 How are yours holding up Scott?  :dunno:

I've just added these LED light setups to my Christmas list (and if I don't get it for Christmas, then I'll put it on my Father's Day gift list, then my birthday gift list... etc).   Brighter/quicker = safer!.. worth the expense to me.

Happy Holidays everyone!

Autocross/road racers go in deeper... and come out harder!

I am ready to buy a set myself . From what I understand they have a switch on the LED to change them to sequential or non-sequential . Can anyone confirm this.. :bigsmile:

I like that they mount close to the lens itself unlike others that mount to the back of the housing,, I am not of fan of using T-taps for tapping into the tail light harness other than that they look good. https://digi-tails.com/sites/default/files/instructions/1200370_cuda_1970.pdf
