Saw these last night and was wondering if anyone has them yet? They appear to be the closest thing yet to an Escalade tail. I'm at work (E-bay is blocked), so I can't post a link.

Just located these:

Yeah, they DO look even closer to the Esky ones than the G3/G4s...

...But they also appear to have the "contoured" top that matches only the Esky appliques. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

These things definitely look to be direct replacements for the actual Esky lights. Gotta have the Esky corners, I'd say.

yeah they are basically the esky ones.. Look real good but that much you could by real esky ones.. But one thing it is missing the 4 LED lights on the bottom side of them.. That would be the only difference

The price for these gets you ONE Esky light. I like the idea of these. Esky lights without the wiring issues, and at half the cost. Not bad at all!

Those look great, but they are super expensive

The real esky one's are running around 200-300 per side... I wonder if these will match up to the matching esky appliques in the rear above the tail lights....

Really? they look identical. I'm not sure which LED's you are talking about have any pics of this?

Felix -- The Esky ones only have 4 LEDs toward the bottom of the side of the lights. Our G4s have a full row of LEDs from the top to the bottom on the sides. These appear to have a row of LEDs on the side, but maybe they're angled so that you don't see them directly from the side. Hard to tell...

Ah I see. I wonder if the 4 LED's toward the bottom of the side of lights are there on the G5 Eagle Eye's and we just can't see em because it's a stock photo... If it has em I'm probably gonna go with these since I can't find a cheap pair of esky tail lights ANYWHERE.

Yeah I guess I hve seen some that go for that much for one. But def have seen pairs go for around 300 also I got mine for 275.. But anyway.. Also I have a feeling they are not going to light up like the Esky ones. They will prob light up the same way the G3 did all 3 rows light up for running and looks like just the two inner ones light up for stop. Ulike the esky ones where the running lights are just the outside Led strip. here is the pic of the 4 leds

Thanks for the pic man that was clutch! I really couldn't get a good visual of where they were. Wow 275 huh? Good deal... i haven't been so lucky and i've been hunting for these for months. BTW: your pic really accentuates how much you should get the esky rear appliques... just sayin

Same here. I'm not paying $600 or more for real Esky tails and honestly, I was hoping they were the same except for having curved corners to match the Tahoe. Those appliques are probably $$$, especially once they are painted to match. I don't dislike my LED bulbs, but I've wanted to get the tails to match the Esky spoiler/brake light I have (also big $$$). I'd go as high as $400 for the real ones, but I haven't even seen that.

Really? The appliques on the esky are way sleeker then the rounded tahoe appliques. I'm glad they have it and i'm definitely getting it.. just not too happy about the price... they run 120-140 a piece then you have to get them painted...
Shoulda bough the set I had. Ahwell...
Appliqués are nowhere near that price. PM incoming...

I don't mind the square corners, it's just another $400 I wouldn't have to spend. Other toys need attention too.

Dirk that is how much they are on gmpartsdirect.com...
That's like buying a brand new set of wheels through GM parts counter. No ones does it. There are other options.
