Mugen LED Tail Lights

[catspaw]

They do, however, provide cushion tape to insulate the connectors which is pretty cool, but from what I saw everything is plug & play. For the lift gate wiring they provide a dummy connector since there's no light board in the mugen reflectors themselves.

They look cool but it’s a bit of a let down that the housings on the hatch don’t light up.

nice i just installed these and just added the loom with electrical tape..this was super easy. I love the look and sequential turn signals! fitment was spot on as well.

I’m curious what the lights look like in actions. Really surprised no one has posted a video.

there actually is... most of the ones I’ve seen have been posted to Facebook and you can find some on YouTube now. Google is your friend sir.

I didn’t do reverse or braking because I don’t have my camera tripod at the moment.

missed opportunity not having the additional part actually be functional.

The lights are cool however I think it makes the back look busier and there’s less ‘brake light’.

I like them, but seeing as it’s a new car I can’t rationalize shelling out over $600 bucks on taillights. I do agree they look busy...for me it’s a pointless mod...maybe in the future when car is older

The price isn’t bad, they are LED but it does suck the hatch lights are reflectors.

Price isn’t high, I just don’t want to put that money on taillights so soon. Maybe In a few years when I get bored with stock. lol I’m also tired of all the extra oem parts I’m collecting at home and I refuse to sell them.

nah it’s a good price. My wife just says “why don’t I spend the money on mods that have a bigger impact” I guess in her eyes changing taillights is a waste of money. Lol
Plus I like the stocks. I feel like if they came that way stock people would just buy the ones that look like current stock ones.

I feel like the turn signal is so short!, rather disappointing how the hatch lights are only just reflectors. As much as I love Mugen, I might have to go with these instead and they're half the cost.

As an owner of the Mugen lights, i also think its a missed opportunity that they didnt extend the turn signals to the hatch. That would require some extra wiring unless the lights themselves some how can communicate via contacts between the lights or wireless (over complicated). I'm curious how the hirev ones achieve that connection.

Mugen or hirev, the lights fix one of the minor gripes about the Type R, where it has a full LED front end but half incandescent back end. I like that both ends are full LED now.

Also, i've had issues with condensation in cold weather in the Mugens. I'm working on potential solutions.

Thank you for the feedback. In regards to HiRev, I'd think it wouldn't be too hard to have the blinkers extend to the other module when you're wiring it outside the car. It's getting the proper routing and connection with the stock harness while it's in the car is where it becomes a bit tricky.

Does the Mugen come with new gaskets? Perhaps if it doesn't it's something to think about getting brand new ones when doing a tail light swap.

Ordered the wheel today...hopefully it's not a 5 to 6 month wait!!!
