I was skeptical about the new lights being better than the ones you had.. but the subtle difference in the shape of the lights does make it look better with the lines of the car. for me it would be mode 2 or mode 4.. love the amber sequential look on both of them. . the alignment issues.. maybe you can space them out maybe with foam tape on the inside? If I had the euro lights already I don't think I'd change but if I had stock tail lights I would absolutely grab a set of those.
When I first saw the 18 up tails in person, I knew I wanted the euro version, until I saw the price lol. With that said, when I was shown these at their price point, it was a no brainer! I know of guys literally having spent thousands on Ford euros to have only half of the functions of these. I am highly impressed so far and can't be more pleased with this purchase.
You must run the yellow wire to the top third brake light or your tail lights will not light up when pressing the brakes I just installed them yesterday, they look amazing I love these tail lights I also did the middle back up light and changed the reflector to a led light tied them to the side marker lights all that changed the whole look of the rear of the car and I'm not even close to being done yet.
They look really good! When I was a kid I thought the sequential turn signals on a 1966 Thunderbird was the coolest thing ever. Funny how they've come back..
If you're debating on these lights... don't! Man, you won't regret it! They are so sick in person! Let s550euros know you're looking at them and see what they can do for you!
I'm about to buy these taillights for my 2018 Mustang and wanted to check in and see how yours are holding up now that they have been in use for a few years. Have any LED's burned out? Any condensation in the taillight assembly? Any problems? Let me know. Thanks! BTW great video!
Thanks for watching! No issues with mine. At times you will get a little condensation, but so do factory tails. Nothing to worry about as long as it dissipates like it's supposed to. But, still working as they should. I love em.
Nice man real nice 2016. Give us some nova content I always wanted a older nova would like to see some things or walk around and driving impressions on the nova. I like that you are honest about the things you didn’t like about the lights. Seems like when you go after market always has fitmet issues. That’s what worries me I’m wanting to buy a new hood an Rear wing but when you read online some guys say fitmet issues. The big time youtubers always make it out that the parts are great I think they don’t want to bad mouth company’s that give them discounts.
Thanks man! Gonna be a bit on the Nova. She's still on Jack stands. Lots to do that requires help and the wife doesn't like the heat in the shop lol. We'll get there, though. I always like to give my honest opinion, especially if it's something I bought with my hard earned money. Plus, honesty gives for a better review. Always good to know pros and cons. In this case, the pros far outweigh the one con! I'm glad you enjoyed this upload!
@@BackyardBMX73 yes, mine does, but I didn’t get the big wire to plug it all th way to the 3rd brake light, but it does have both tail lights the yellow wire to be connected, could you tell me what’s the large wire that connects the tail lights to the 3rd brake lights please? I need to find that wire asap since it didn’t come with the euro tail lights, help, at least the name or the connection of that wire to see if I can find it online
Noice broham!!!!! Those things are extremely bright .... I would guess the camera wouldn’t do it justice at all... when you’re filming in 1080/60 it tends to not be able to LED lights ... my Sony does a much better job of picking up lights ...

Needed to have Eibach and Bilstein mods due to some stupid Swiss Regulation, very happy with that! Just Love the Pony, even at 61 years of age!
I have a 2019 Mustang Gt and just got those today. Will I still have to wire that one yellow wire to the top break light? Please get back thanks! Merry Christmas
I have a 2020 and the vlands *still* look better than the OEM! Atleast at nighttime (I just installed)... Also, it *is* less bright, but they were too bright (at night) IMO already anyways...
whats the point of the third break light wire ? do u actully need to run that wire ? or will ur third break light not work if u dont plug it up with that wire?
I believe they are just the signals and hazards. I need to film behind the car so I can capture the modes with parking and brake lights on. I was running short on time when I filmed this, so I didn't test all modes with park and brake lights.
I appreciate it! We’re stationed in Japan and trying to bring a Stang GT over there. In order for it to pass inspection the tails have to be like that. Been in contact with a dude in Poland that can mod the stockers but these are cheaper altogether and ready to go. Thanks!
i know when you are pressing the break the amber just goes over top the red brake lights. is there a mode where when braking with a signal, that light is just amber? not amber running over the red?
So I just got some been 2 months n when I use my right turn signal it will only light up to the second light not the 3rd any idea y bossman??? Just recently started to happen
Hi, i recently bought EU Mustang ecoboost 2019 S550, i was wondering how i can get the Sequencer, cause my turn signals only use one light bar. What do i need to make them light all the bars one by one? Thanks
@@BackyardBMX73 Or you must connect it for the change of the Modes. But then you can connect to the Brakelight wire from the Taillamps?! Its the same Signal what's going on the 3 Break light.
I installed mine and didn't connect the yellow to the third brake light. I just linked the two tail lights together with it and everything works fine. I haven't tried to change modes yet because I like the cursor mode so much.
@@alexanderkhimich2511 it should blink weirdly when you hit the brake, if you don't hook it to the 3rd brake light you will be driving around looking stupid to others
I installed mine yesterday, everything was good but then yesterday night i turn on the car to drive it and the running light worked but the sequencer on the right side didnt work i tried reprograming and got the blinker working again but it would blink regular not sequential..left side is orange sequetian and right side is red and normal blinker not sequential...idk what to do now
ponie1992 same vendor..its really weird cuz it worked perfectly when i instelled them..i was thinking after watching your video that it might have to do that i ran the yellow wire the opposite way as you did..

The yellow wire is definitely necessary. I believe that's what triggers the actual brake lights. Not sure why they did it that way, but it definitely needs to be hooked up.
@@BackyardBMX73 I just bought those and I have a stupid question, on the third brake light it looks like one pigtail end goes into the light and the other goes into the factory harness and then you run the rest of the wire down to the tail lights.

how is it exactly you swap through the modes, getting ready to install my lights tomorrow =)
I explain towards the end of this video

How much do these cost? Love the look
They very in price, depending on where you get them from. I would say average $500-600.
Hey , how you get that yellow wire ? Bc I have vland same lights as you but it didn’t come w the yellow wire
Do your lights have a yellow wire at all? Maybe they redesigned them.

I believe so. Merry Christmas to you as well!
Just picked up a set. Have you had any issues with condensation/water issues inside the assemblies?
No more than my Ford euros did. Really depends on temp and humidity outside.
I have a 2020 and the vlands *still* look better than the OEM! Atleast at nighttime (I just installed)... Also, it *is* less bright, but they were too bright (at night) IMO already anyways...
The S550 tails are pretty damn bright, no doubt.
Have you had any condensation issues?
I'll get some at times, but it dissipates as it should. My stock lights did the same thing.
My OEM lights seem brighter. How about yours? Are they dimmer than the OEM?
Mine seem brighter then OEM to me.
So are these legal to have on your car in the US?
Yes
whats the point of the third break light wire ? do u actully need to run that wire ? or will ur third break light not work if u dont plug it up with that wire?
Tail lights won't function correctly without it, not sure why.
In Mode 5, do the outside bars function as brake lights at all? Or are they strictly turn signals? Thanks!
I believe they are just the signals and hazards. I need to film behind the car so I can capture the modes with parking and brake lights on. I was running short on time when I filmed this, so I didn't test all modes with park and brake lights.
I'll see what I can do to double check this for you today or tomorrow.
