I'm interested in changing my tail lights and have always thought that the smoked Hellas were best looking on Daytona. When I bought the car it was between the one I have and a mugello. I liked the LEDs on the blue, but smoked on the gray.

Anyone have a better source than ECS? I'd even be willing to buy used if someone decided they didn't like the look and took them off.

TIA

Josh, I can't find them anywhere on ebay. I see a depo brand that are LED, but not hella. Do you have a link?

If you can wait til the weekend, I'll send you a pic of my backside (well, my car's backside.) I've got Daytona and smoked, and I'm thinking about changing to LED. If you like the look, you can make me an offer.

Sure, if i don't have to remove the engine to change the tail lights.

That would be awesome! Seriously, the only thing easier to remove on this car is the gas cap. Four 10mm nuts and a harness. Remove side panel and look back there. On the drivers side you'll have to slide out the jack kit to have better access.

I could send them overnight and have you do the same to minimize downtime for me. No downtime for you.

I am partial to the LED - the brighter the better! Now if I could only program it to flash like the Veyron...

I just checked, and it is definitely NOT anywhere near Endeavor or Hot Tub Time Machine.

Are these an OEM part? I am afraid of buying these and then having issues with them later on (I don't think the smoked hellas would look good on my Avus Silver).

bmlee, let me know if you decide to go LED.

Here are a couple pics of mine, although I guess they're not smoked so much as they just look dark on the car. For comparison, my A6 with Euro tails is sitting next to the RS. Sorry, the sun hasn't been out since I got home yesterday morning, and I believe we had about 5 total minutes that it wasn't raining.

I am going to LED, but probably in the spring. If you like how this looks (if it is any different that what you have now,) I'd be willing to swap, and I can even throw in a set of smoked side markers for the front fenders.

Smiler, sorry for not responding. The Hella brand is all over the web. I thought you were looking for posts from someone that might actually have them on their car. I think only a few people on this forum have those tails installed. No reason to feel discouraged.

I Googled "Hella Smoked Tails RS6" and found these:

http://www.supremepowerparts.com/products/prod_details.aspx?prod_id=7302

And on ebay:

Hope this helps.

I have a friend working at Hella in Germany. He is currently searching for smoked tails for my 2004 RS6 Avant. If there's anyone out there that want the same lights, I'll ask if he can get more of them. :)

They aren't currently making them, but there might be some pairs left in the storage deartment. He's searching for the lights - I'll let you know if he finds them, Smiler! :)

Hi, I found a shop in Norway that sells smoked LED's etc for most cars. Anything of interest?
