Simple explanation...they aren't the same lights. Personally, I'd never order something like that on Ebay...wait for it to become available from a reputable source...some place with a return policy.

They look like the spider lights that have been out for a few months now. The neon looking bar is to light and almost pink in the day time it has stopped a lot of people from getting them. I don't know if they fixed that problem but they came on the market right after sema

Those are the spider lights the ones in this tread are a little different but probably made by the same company they really have a strong hold on the market I just installed a set of their lights on a truck. I would wait till they have some reviews out personally just encase.

Edit: the neon looking bar only has a light on each end so they get lighter in color towards the middle (pink). I would also not plan on just plugging them in. Normally there is some wiring involved.

I have heard of those and I really like them with the red tint. I didn't know they got released the last I heard they were still in development. As much as I like spider I think the bullet proof would be the better bet but again I would anticipate a little wiring nothing major. I only wish they still had a full circle of lights in the middle instead of the one missing on top.

These pics are indoors so just florescent light nothing bright like the sun the first pics I saw was it outside as they were unloading it and they looked pink. When asked about why everyone was doing that neon style light and what they were going to do to fix the pink they just replied they are working on it. I am hoping for a nice led light without that bar in it and a shaded tint on it. Sypder replied to an email I sent and they said they are working on that as well. I'm just not a fan of it unless they could make it brighter during the day. I'll try to find the pics if them outside but they took them off the website so I'll have to do some digging.

Oh I see what you mean now :/ I think the tube needs to brighten up too... But on some pictures they seem fine :/ I do agree with what the people say tho they should make them clear/ flat or something might have helped the lighting... I was thinking of tinting them but that might make the light even harder to see.. So that's not possible :/ sigh and that price is crazy!!
