My CD Truflex leds are setup for all 3 functions, as well as the license plate frame lights. Truflex leds strips are 8.60" in length.

I think you will be very happy, once you get them installed. Keep us posted.

I've got Plasma Rods on the 07 SG. I've got them running all three brake, run, turn and was a simple install with the posi taps. Most people that come up behind me comment on them especially at night. Should have put them on years ago.

Believe these plasma light strips should only be used along with the stock turn signals for street use.

The plasma rods, by themselves cannot be seen from the sides, but only directly from behind. Not sure the police would let you go with only the rods.

It has the best look, but as far as functional turn signals they leave much to be desired, and most likely very illegal.

The screaming eagle turn signals mount them on a raised platform so they can also be seen from the sides.

Same thing with cars. The turn and brake signals need to not only be visible from behind, but also from the side.

I might be posting this a bit late..... But,

I have CD LED rear turn signals and Kury LED brake light , and the plasma rods.... The plasma rods are about 50% as bright as my LED lights in the sun. On a very cloudy day, they are a little better. At night - they are fantastic, but in the day, not so much.

I'd still run them because of how they look at night, but was very disappointed in daytime.

You are absolutely correct on this, I did a video comparing day and night, and it is a huge difference, especially if the sun is at your back.
