Im guessing the that LY/W is a color that I don't have, so no pics from me. But I can tell you a few pluses and minuses.
Plus - They look way better - red tail lights dont usually match cars unless they are red in my opinion
Minus - the brake lights are often a little bit pink, which doesnt matter to me but is the truth. And you are legally supposed to have reflectors on the rear, which are ugly (I dont have them and have had no problem) Also, the fancy replacement bulbs are about $20 each. On my clear tail lights the bulb was soldered to the panel and I was suposed to pay $60 for a new panel, so I had to un-solder and bust the light out to replace it.
It does look good though.
