Esky taillights

[Smokymance]

Saw this on instagram the other day...didnt know these lights fit on the GMT900s too

I like the older style escalade taillights better,car seems to sit more lower with that style.
Just got a '16 suburban and i hate the rear end design with its iriginal lights.
Ordered a set of the esky lights and waiting to be delivered. I dont mind both brake and blinker lighting up at the same time because i like the visibility boost from behind.
Personally i thought those amber blinkers were dwarfed by the brake lights while blinking anyways.
Every time you are coming to a corner you slow down hence ur brake lights come of full blast overpowering the turn signal.
I think it is actually safer that they both blink at the same time.
There is no way someones gonna miss that slow down and turn after that massive turn signal.

well the set i ordered arrived today.
they look good, good packaging but i think these lights could use a light smoke tint.
before i install them i think im gonna take them to a tint shop to get them tinted tiny bit.should be good to protect the exterior in the long run anyways

Have you tried looking up vinyl tint? I'm thinking vinyl instead of permanent tint just in case I change my mind.

good idea. i dont think it would be hard to do it hmmmmm
thanks for the heads up. i ordered some nite shade spray too but i kinda want a protective film over more actually rather than spraying stuff on the taillights.

I would also like to night shade my pair, but would hate to have a permanent approach. I have blacked out my tails on my truck and it looks good, but sometimes hard to see the brake light in sunlight. I would hate someone to rear end my wife due to me wanting black tail lights.

I would also like to see the tint job on the tails.

Buy the way, night shade is an easy application to use. I had to redo my lights after about 2 years. The sun fads the paint. I had a body shop spray the clear on them and they look like the paint.

So has the brake/blinker issue for Tahoes been corrected yet? Anyone know? If so who's selling the correct version for the Tahoe?

 

[toi]

i dont think it can be corrected completely.tahoes and suburbans use only 1 cable for brake and signals whereas gmc and cadillac use seperate two cables

 

[TOYSTRY]

Does VLAD that sell them not monitor these pages.....surely there is a work around?

Has anyone who has these realized that during the day when it's sunny you can not see the brake lights when applied you can only see the third brake light I think it is the quality of the tail lights they eBay seller is issuing me a refund but I really like the escalade tail lights but I don't want to get hit in the rear because someone can't see my brakes and if you compare them to the actual escalade tail lights it's a big noticeable difference
