    the red will look a little different(darker) once the insides are painted black. Picture above is with silver internals.
    Actually...they are in production. ETA for launch is November.



    :thumbsup:

    Unfortunately everything has gone up in these times. Materials, shipping, etc. Yes they are a bit pricey but I think once you see the quality and performance..they are worth it for a factory fit/drop in assembly.

    Correct. Morimoto is handling the production/testing/packaging.

    Nothing wrong with the Stage 1's! These are apple to oranges. Upgrade VS full replacements.

    Yes. Uses all OEM plugs so the DIR harness would do the same thing

    They will carry the same warranty as other Morimoto tail lights; 5 years.

    Great looking product....was all set to go....till I got on the website and saw the price. $100 or $150 more than the stuff that's already out there I would go for. Not at 2 1/2 times the price. I'm sure people will buy, seems like a quality product, I just can't justify that much $$.

    Can't wait! Will the brake light output be comparable to Stage 1 or Stage 2?

    Nothing major
    Same, AND pro tails. Anyone want pro tails and stage 1’s in November? Lol

    I’m in with the 5 year warranty and $650. Thought they’d be higher tbh. I’m about to do a bhlm, confirms I’ll go ahead and do them in satin instead of glossy to match the pro tails.

    I’m excited for these, nice work Meso!

    Nope, saw the vendor name and that it was new product and stopped there. But now that you've asked I see the line that you're *maybe* referencing:

    Morimoto is handling the production/testing/packaging.

    Sounds encouraging since Meso designs some really cool stuff. My frustrations in the past have been with availability.

    That would be excessive. The Stage 2's are already too bright in my opinion.

    That’s why I had to team up with larger manufactures to aid in that department. Safe to say there *should* be plenty in this run.

    maybe, but the maps and domes could be considered excessive but they're amazing :confused:
