TRDness 26 Report post Posted March 11, 2015 Hi all, I've got a JDM set of TOM's red tail lights on the way over from japanparts.com. They are significantly cheaper ordering from there compared to getting them here in the UK (even with customs charges). Does anyone have any experience with the wiring of these? Will they plug and play directly with our EU tail light wiring or will I have to do some re-pinning to get them to work? They are E-marked however, no idea if that means they'll be compatable with european models. Should be a question asked before buying but there we go! Haha. Thanks, Ajay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TRDness 26 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 Glad to hear! Thinking of combining them with the red version of the lower valenti light, but without that "V" lighting up at all, too much bling for me! 1 GTB reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesP1991 222 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 How much were a pair through Japan Parts Ajay? They seem to be a fair bit more expensive on other sites compared to the Valenti rears. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodename47 446 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 I'm sure the JDM ones are the same, it's only the US ones that are pinned differently.How much were a pair through Japan Parts Ajay? They seem to be a fair bit more expensive on other sites compared to the Valenti rears.That's because they are a fair bit better (IMO). Of course the 2nd gen Valenti's (Revo) are nice, whenever they get released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRDness 26 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 Here you go James, about £205-210 depending on the £-¥ exchange rate on the day. Obviously factor in postage and customs 20% vat when they arrive. Still cheaper than UK vendors though.https://www.japanparts.com/parts/detail/43297 OH MY just had a look at those 2nd gen valenti's, seriously considering ditching the TOM's when they come out!!!

Hmmm not too bad considering! I can't afford a set of different rears just now but it is definitely something I want to do later on in the year! Haven't seen the 2nd gen Valentis yet, but my favourite has to be the Buddyclub version, best looking set on the market in my opinion! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 If I'm looking at the correct set, the revo valenti's don't look massively different to me. Love the buddy club ones, my only problem with them is they don't really go with the lights at the front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRDness 26 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 2nd gen revo valentis: Here http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AINpzsL2C38 And here http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Yi9HVDVunFk Buddy club for me is a bit "mini aventador-ish" but they do suit certain car colours and body kits well. I'm a bit of an OEM+ guy which is why i went for the tom's, but the revo's have caught my eye! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 So they're just normal Valenti's but with a sequential indicator? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kodename47 446 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 So they're just normal Valenti's but with a sequential indicator? The break light is diffused so looks like a bar, look at it compared to the standard Jewel items which have individual LEDs. The standard light bar is different and the indicators are also different as well as the option of sequential flashing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JamesP1991 222 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 Front Valenti headlights don't look that great to be honest, I see nothing wrong with our headlights as it is in my opinion, aren't they are already LED and carry daytime running lights? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
