Ok I ordered a pair off of eBay, probably first mistake I know... Anyway, they were called "Generation 3" I guess that's who makes them. Anyway, needless to say the fit like crap, I mean there was probably a good 1 - 2 cm gap all the way around, just awful...

Anyway, I have seen some of you with really clean lookin installs, and just wondering who makes them, and is that just the way they fit, or did you have to modify them to fit that good? Because I look at some of you guys' rides, and your Altezza's fit just like the factory lights. No gaps at all, very clean, just wondering how you did it?

I just sold my Altezzas 20 minutes ago but mine fit very well, they needed to be tightened a lot but APC is a pretty crappy producer, they leak so I sold them cause I am too lazy to seal them I am just going JDM now. TYC is another brand you can look at.

do you have any pics of the tails you bought? i've never heard of generation 3. i suggest giving it back and try to get your money back. then buy some TYC tail lights. that's the only brand i recommend. but whatever you do, dont get APC! they're crap!

Said like a pro. I had my Altezzas for over a year now and they just started leaking....but I heard TYC's are great...Nothing beats stock though

Yeah that's the thing I never heard of them before either!

I sold them right back on eBay, they aren't on the car anymore.

So TYC are good are they? Do they fit as good as the OE Honda lights? What do you guys mean by sealing? Is it something that goes around them to make them fit better?

true, i love the stock tail lights.

you only need to seal it if the tail light leaks. meaning there are no holes where moisture or water can get inside.

Oh ok, so it's nothing cosmetic then...

So TYC lights fit just like the OE Honda one's with no gaps?

it should fit like OEM tail lights. if not, send it back and they should give you a new pair

Yeah, fair enough. I'm never buying anything major like that on eBay again, I got lucky with my RS grill, that fits like a glove.

ebay is pretty safe, you just have to look at the sellers rating and feedbacks

 
Rep Power: 0

Well it wasn't so much the user rating, it was excellent, it's just the product they sold was junk. It was Redlinezone who sold me them. However I bought the grill from X3 Racing, and they were awesome, very helpful, not so for RLZ.

TYCS fit great, look nice, and dont leak. I also bought mine from the Honda dealer for $212 new.

Any questions, PM me.

Oh ok, yeah those are alright, but I wouldn't spend all the money to get them, chances are I'll just clear out my front's, it all depends really, I'd be doing stuff to the engine first anyway...

Yeah just as long as they fit like the OEM's (no gaps, and don't stick out).
