anyway... i saw a newer nissan altima coupe and it had LED taillights and i though damn that would look sharp on a crossfire!
so i went to autozone and picked up red LED light strips, they came with (2) 15in led strips with the LEDs mounted on the side of the adhesive tape/wire stuff, so i took out my taillights and spliced them into my taillight wires and then tucked them neatly into the space between the taillight and the body panel and you can not see them one bit when they are off (no wires, stripping or adhesive) but when I turned on the taillights, WOW! they were incredibly bright
total cost : $21.68 after sales tax and i installed them in literally 10 minutes!
tell me what you think, i know the pic isnt the best but you get the idea, i had to take pic on my phone

o.O Jason! LOL I have been searching the internet day and night to find out how I could get the "audi" style led's for my headlights and tail lights, (stupid me didnt post here lol) I am not an expert at electricity or anything, so im afraid to install them LOL, splicing just sounds hard! eh D: It would be cool if someone *wink wink* could make a tutorial on how to do this, would be great! all the tutorials I see online are for other cars, I need for XF! ^_^ looks great though!
