Anybody Have Pics W/ Altezza LED Taillights?
Anybody Have Pics W/ Altezza LED Taillights?
I tried searching the forum, but I don't think anybody has pictures of these posted. If there are, please link them!
Any comments on the fit/finish/quality of these lights are appreciated. It also looks like you could install an amber colored bulb for the turn signal...

they look pretty terrible, and i bet the leds will start burning out one by one like those stupid scion tails. yea you would need an amber bulb (or red) to make it legal.

That and this assembly looks more stylish than the Honda factory ones...
Hey there probably the best looking aftermarket tail out there for our Honda's. I mean the next best thing is the 04-05 tails right? I like them, and if you dont really care for the red and chrome look, you could always paint them in candy red and make them all one color. i dunno something to consider.. Does anyone know who produces them, that will help determinging the quality..

ya if you retrofit all new leds (including amber for the signal like the M3), and do it right so they don't burn out fast, it would be nice.

As far as the quality of the lights, I have had no moisture on the inside, very solid, and fits snug like stock ones. I am very pleased with the lights. And I believe the maker is a company called Sonar.

you could try the tezzas on ebay, they have been pulled apart fairly easily. there are some nice looking ones there too. but yea stock you cant dremel either, the stuff is actually visible in back of the tail. so you can see the sealant through the light. therefore cutting it open and putting together if you somehow manage this, it will look like crap when you put it back together.
I'll flip out and kill people.

people have cut taillights open, but it is hard to make it look even slightly decent after you are MAYBE* able to put them back together, like gearbox said.
