Good camera, lighting and a bit of editing

Yep, theyre actually quite bright, especially when you're directly behind the car, brighter than the Valentis

I would say about the same during the day, or a tad brighter, but much brighter at night. I drove behind my friend with the same lights at night and it honestly hurt my eyes a bit looking directly at them.

Do these tail lights have the side reflector illuminated?
Is the turn signal amber or red?
Are they JDM spec?

no illuminated side reflector yet

those comes with the DOT approved version due later this month.

I actually didn't want any more lights in the tail light to keep it clean so i opted for the one out now

these look better too. the USDM ones seem too aftermarket with the black housing and clear lens

Those ones are aftermarket. They are the Helix ones, apparently Helix had been trying to get approved by TOMS and so far hasn't. The official TOMS look just like the JDM variant (with the side reflector to make it legal stateside). Here's the two group buys for the real ones.

Looks like TOMS will be making the clear ones as well, they just aren't up for pre-order yet.
