Damn I like those tails. Are they OEM or aftermarket? If aftermarket who makes them?

http://www.magnetimarelli.com/ is the company that makes these identical taillights but aren't considered OEM

They are OEM Euro LED - so 2009-2012 A3. - There is an aftermarket manufacturer as well, I will have to dig up the name. But both are on BKS's website and OEM plus as well I think.

Wow Ponto, as a fresh green here, I just took a good 2-3 hours to go through your 29 page thread, and I loved every bit of it! Really gives me the itch to get rid of my lease and get me some real car I can tweak. So much up's and down's if you start from the beginning! From the first trip to Florida through all your road trips! Makes a grown man jealous! Impressive work on your A3. Keep the posts rolling! Really cool stuff.

Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it! And well did stuff tonight too.



Mmm LED Reverse bulbs.



Resistors all wired in!





Now down to the car!!!

Old and busted for reference.





And here we go!

Didn't take many install pics, but resistors tucked away... using plastic zip ties may not be the best idea if they get hot...



Excellent.




Need to get some good night shots, my parkade sucks for them.

And holy **** bright!!



Tron Out!!! (Shitty IG video lol)

Nice! Got my manifold plate back end of August. Haven't installed yet.

I think they are different because one with the red loom was a picture when he just started making them and test fitted on his car and the one with the blue is a new picture he posted up. Same guy, hes the one who makes them.

Same guy! He came to us and the TT group looking to expand.

And yeah pictures I posted were just ones he provided us. I am a fan of it. Almost don't want to put it on haha
