Mars Evo X Taillight Install!!!

What's up everyone welcome back to the channel! This time around I am installing the Mars/Varis taillights that I got shipped from Australia. I think the actual manufacturer is over there but it's a good thing that they pack the taillights so well. They came unscathed and in perfect condition! After installing these taillights the car seems like its an Evo X that has been refinished off the lot from Mitsubishi. This combo of Vland headlights and Mars taillights are perfect to make the car flow! Thanks for tuning in this week and I'll see you guys next Monday! Later!

this man knows his way around his Evo X 💯

[@adotwhite]

great video, about to install my tail lights right now. this helped a lot!

[@JeffSongCars]

I'm glad to be of help! Thanks for the support 😁👍

[@adotwhite]

@@JeffSongCars LOL shit, I just realized that I took my buffer peice off, that little soft cushion haha. gotta re do the install tomorrow. Dude, thanks again!

[@JeffSongCars]

Hahaha no problem! It’s good that you caught it! 😃👍🏼

[@CamApex9]

Great video! Excited to get these lights for my X!

[@JeffSongCars]

Thanks alot! You won't regret it haha 😄👍

[@CamApex9]

@@JeffSongCars are they still holding up well since the install?

[@JeffSongCars]

Yea they're really nice they look like the day there were installed 👍

[@XdeathtrapX1]

Hy Jeff,good Video. Got the same installed three Weeks ago.They`re pretty dope. Maybe you should get the original Evo10 Spoiler, it looks way better.

[@JeffSongCars]

Thanks for the support! Love the Mars taillights haha and spoiler I have the original somewhere but the paint was completely gone so hmmm that's an idea haha 👍

[@khu4442]

Hey nice job man but I think if you change those signal light bulb to led one will look much better and newer

[@JeffSongCars]

That's definitely true! I may do that in the future but my only hesitation is I'm wondering what kind of resistor I would need to set off the LED conversion 😅 Thanks for the support!👍

[@ReginatorsRR]

I love the look I just ordered the same set how long did it take for shipping since I bought it from Australia?

[@JeffSongCars]

I think it took about two weeks? It didn’t take too long haha 👍🏼 these are definitely the best taillights 😎

[@johnmario6901]

Hey mate! You've did a great job!👍 I just got these taillights and iam pretty much confused about those resistors provided along with the package! Is there any problem if don't use them while doing the installation???

[@JeffSongCars]

Thanks alot! Yea I was confused with the resistors as well and there is no problem without the resistors installed. I think they actually might be for the inner rear taillights because when you press the brakes it's only the outer rears that actually light up, with the lights on, everything is lit up normally but it's just the braking that is off it seems. The taillights might be made like that or there may have to be some wire splicing needed to make all four light up when pressing the brakes and that's when you use the resistors. Hopefully that made sense hahah 😆👍

[@ulysesromero1281]

any update boys on what those resistors were for ?

[@randallmorales803]

Hi bro, i have the same problem, i need to make all four light UP when i press the brake, do you know how to do that? I sent u a message on ig, please help!

[@Bmoney-js4kl]

Have you needed to add the extra resistors yet or still no problems running without them?

[@JeffSongCars]

Still no problems yet! I think the resistors are for the inners if you want all four taillights to light up when you're braking 👍

[@wokkie168]

for the outer tail lights people don't need to pull the trunk liner off, just the two screws and then slowly wiggle the light off while being careful of the small corner by the quarter panel. You did a great job nonetheless

[@JeffSongCars]

Oh! Didn't know that haha just wanted to be safe than sorry 😅 thank you for the support 😁👍

[@wokkie168]

@@JeffSongCars No worries !! thats why i said people and basically didn't try to say "you should have done this" you did a great job on the install and should be proud!

[@JeffSongCars]

@@wokkie168 Thank you 😄

[@dodgersfnshepard8673]

Thank you! I'm ordering these today. Question, do u have a back up cam & did the new lights mess with it (common report is the reverse lights flicker &or cam shorts off while in reverse) 2. Where's you headlight video? I can't find it

[@JeffSongCars]

Awesome you won't regret it! I currently don't have a backup camera installed so not too sure but I feel like maybe it might have to do with the right resistor size? Or the fuse might be too small of a fuse for the backup camera and the new LED lights in the taillamp so might need to put in a bigger fuse. This is the link to my headlight video kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZm0kmZvotd3epo Thanks for the support and I'll try to answer any questions that I can! 😁👍

[@dodgersfnshepard8673]

@@JeffSongCars thanks, I found it on a search but not under your channel page. I've had this issue with a lot of people I'm subbed to, idk y. I'm ordering as I speak both headlights and tail lights like in your videos. I have a feeling I'll have the tail light issue reported by a lot, most fix with a resistor. Not sure how I'll like the headlights. I love the look but I'm switching from halogen to hids, just need brighter. I fear I may have issues there too due to no sss but nothing a little wiring can't solve. Keep up the mods & videos and I'll be sure to follow. I left my 14 se stock for far to long

[@JeffSongCars]

@@dodgersfnshepard8673 I feel if you put in a bigger fuse and change the resistor it will fix the issue but I'll see if it does after I install the back up camera. My evo is a non SSS as well so no worries. The only issue that I have with the VLand headlights is that when they're on you can see a little gap in the middle of the beam pattern, its not that big of a deal but it's definitely noticeable. Thank you and yea you should definitely start fixing up your car! The feeling after putting on mods is just... 🥳 hahaha

[@user-gv2ir4un6w]

looksy so goofy with a past generation wing on there

[@JeffSongCars]

Yea haha I changed it a while ago to the APR big wing 😂

[@clark8511]

Nice!!!! I running MARS as well.

[@JeffSongCars]

I think they're the best taillights 👍

My brother's. I have one too and is still I the works. You have a Instagram?

[@JeffSongCars]

Dang that's nice hahaha yea I just made one it's @_jeff.song When's your evo going to be up and running?

[@esco3633]

Ordered mine today! How long did they take to deliver?

[@JeffSongCars]

You won't regret buying them! I still love the way they look, they took about a week and a half so it was fairly quick 👍

[@xxraverxxonxtacy]

Looks nicely murdered out, is that Evo 8/9 spoiler direct drop and bolt from the Evo X wing with not modifications?

[@JeffSongCars]

Thanks for the support! Yea it's a direct bolt on spoiler with all the correct holes for OEM fitment, its been pretty sturdy and it only mounts to two holes. One is a nut that screws in from the spoiler itself and one is a bolt that screws to the spoiler from below the trunk

[@cemingaraj.1329]

Oem stoplights look better imo. Mine has red background oems and im trying to get myself your oem stoplights 😅

[@JeffSongCars]

2008 evo huh? Yea I liked the oem black background taillights but I wanted to match the theme of the car and make it look more modern hahaha, I do like the new ones though 😆👍

[@lancered4234]

You should check out the new tail lights recently released from HC Motion.

[@JeffSongCars]

Oh I saw those on Facebook, they look cool but I don't know they seem a little busy. Also the company that was selling it raised it by $100 haha they do look nice though! 👍

You are going to need those resistor later.. 😅.

[@JeffSongCars]

Oh! Where is it needed? I couldn't seem to find where I would need it? Is it for the inners?

[@AbdulHakimMohamad]

@@JeffSongCars Led is using lower voltage.. so resistor is needed. It may cause check engine soon also will light up in your cluster.. the resistor installed at outer/body piece.. not for inner/trunk piece.

[@JeffSongCars]

@@AbdulHakimMohamad Thank you for the information! I will check out all the wiring again and see if I can find a way to connect everything properly 👍

[@oscarb9790]

I’m trying to order the taillights but I get message cannot ship to USA?

[@JeffSongCars]

Are you buying them off of eBay? I remember when I ordered mine they were shipping from Australia. I’m wondering if they changed their policy

[@oscarb9790]

Yes I’m buying from eBay the link you provided.

[@JeffSongCars]

Oh damn I’m guessing they might have changed their shopping policies. A lot of them might have been broken during transport 😢 try giving them a call or message and see if they can make an exception for you!

[@oscarb9790]

Thanks! keep up the good work like your videos 👍

[@JeffSongCars]

Thanks man! I really hope they are able to ship the lights to you because they really do set the car off 👍🏼

I actually bought the spoiler off of a Facebook forum member, I may have the spoiler for sale soon though 😉

@@JeffSongCars how much in cad?

[@JeffSongCars]

@@M3rcy00 If you want the old evo 8/9 lookalike spoiler I had I can do 250 CAD shipped, just to let you know the wing only comes with limited hardware but it's what I used to keep it in place. Let me know if you're still interested because I will give you first chance at it and probably will be posting it for sale on the socal evo facebook page if you don't want it 👍
