I think I saw these posted quite a while back, with a link for pricing. It wasn't pretty, IIRC.

Quick search turned up a couple, but not the one I remember:

Ramy's working on emails (we get many everyday). To be fair to everyone he answers them in the order they are received. Just be patient and he'll get to it .

I love those lights...The name of the company that makes those is Nagisa Auto...from my understanding, you have to send a core in and then they send it back to you. Hopefully this link works but here is the website: http://www.nagisa-auto.com/products/led.html
Hope this helps you

CWestFD3S, yes you're correct; they're made by Nagisa Auto... IMO one of the most respectable Japanese Tuners in all of Japan (they also have the fastest street tuned street car in Japan... an 800 hp Skyline).

Re: the lights, there are two options:

- Purchase brand new lights that are converted by them for $900+
- Ship them your tailights as a core, and they'll convert them for $700+

These are rough price estimates; they don't take into account any shipping or handling fees, etc.

Thanks,

Most of the LEDs I've seen in Japan are have always been converted by random shops. There are a few places that do it here, too.

I have a 240SX as well as my RX-7s and had the lights on the Nissan "LEDed" by clearcorners. It was way too much money, but for a widebody 240 it's funny to get compliments on the taillights of all things.

Although I haven't had the issue, some people complain about condensation after going LED. It has nothing to do with with the lights, but just the fact that the lights have to be opened and re-sealed.

I can ask some of my friends at Tanabe and see if they can ask the people at Nagisa and see about shipping and all that
