Over the last 15 years, advances in LED technology has made dramatic improvements in many consumer electronics and automotive lighting post. LEDs are used to make vast improvements in many of our commonly used devices. The LED-based lighting uses considerably less power than their previous technology counterparts.
LEDs are now commonly used in Televisions, Hand-Held electronics, Mobile Phones, Household Appliances, as well as Automotive Lighting.

The automotive industry has employed LEDs in Tail Lights (aka Tail Lamps), Instrument Displays, and interior lighting for higher-end aesthetics, as well as to improve power consumption and wiring demands. The most common technique for attaching LED arrays is heat staking. Most LED arrays for Tail Lights are either Metal Clinch Frames (with stamped LEDs) or Flexible Circuit arrays (with SMT LEDs).

The contours, shapes and configurations that can be designed around these LED Arrays allow for many new tail light assemblies. The automotive designers are now creating some very creative, futuristic and concept-style production tail lights which are being introduced into new makes and models each year.
