I have to ask, are these taillights legal in NY or in general? What about longevity? will they last like an OEM unit would? What about the condensation issue on OEM units. does this happen with these as well??

The Valenti lights have euro4 (E) mark certificates, same as DOT mark for us, so in Europe they are legal. Not sure if US is accepting E mark aswell, but in general if something gets an E mark, it does also comply with DOT rules (just not tested/certified)
Longevity, well, how should we know, they are only out since about 2 months now :-)
Look and feel (quality wise) of the valenti lights is similar to OEM, if not even better, so they at least look like lasting long.
About condensation, I also think time will tell. I have used them in alot of rain this month, and had no condensation yet. On the other side, I had no condensation with the OEM units aswell.

But noone will be able to give you a long term feedback on a product that has been lanched just recently. Either take the risk, or wait 2-3 years and then ask again.

I recently had these installed with the diffuser lights and they look amazing at night.

Thanks to Zeta for making the purchase and installation of my Valenti lights a breeze. The smoked set looks great on my raven FRS. The install for the tail lights was simple. The reverse taillight was a bit more work but Zeta had it prepared so the wires were ready to tap.

I couldn't be happier with these lights. I also have my eye on those triangle turn
signals, but I love my switch backs a little too much.

Thanks again,

Russ

Anyone have the black/red on a Firestorm or Chrome/Red? Cant decide which one looks best on the all red car. I am concerned about the visibility of the black/red lights during daytime driving, plus the chrome/red/red may be TOO much red (and chrome) on a Firestorm... I like a little tailight chrome to keep the front and back matching (chrome headlamps still and chrome led DRL instead of fogs) so a blacked out back may be a mis match. I love it on the Raven though!

I've emailed you twice. A few days after 86 Fest with no reply. I called with no answer. I bought a roof diffuser at your booth at 86fest drove on the freeway and it flew off and almost hit the car behind me can you please reply and help me out. I paid 95 dollars. I though customer servings was number one for zeta
