Step one- buy JDM tail lights
Step two- slaughter them
Step three- hope you don't f*ck up JDM tails
Step four- put back together

That is going to be more expensive than every other tail light, because those are custom. Not mass produced.

hey guys does anybody know how much those JDM tails at the top run for?

Hmm...but it looks soooo appealing, where can I get the LED kit and the replacement clear cover lens?

Those aren't even the JDM Tail Lights. They are stock. Look at the black linings. It looks like they took the glass lens part off the JDM tail lights though. And they took a pair of LED tail lights and broke it up and most likely crazy glued it carefully together. That those Tail Lights look very precisely done and proffesionally done. Doesn't look half a$$ed and looks very clean.

Those are JDM. Notice they are flush, not indented where the lines are. Those are the JDM tail lights. Trust Me.

they dont look like them, the jdm lining is normally different, but then again, meh

but will i have to go to aerokraft-kaze.com to get lens like that, because the exterior lens looks different than a standard jdm.

The guy that made them lives in the UK. They don't have USDM lights in the UK. It only looks different because I believe he tossed the original lens and created his own. I know there is a thread around here about it.

This was one of the ones where he confirms..

And 95celicast wins the prize.

Standard UK tails, oven, unstick lens from main body, create all the internals myself (NOT some kit I just disassembled and reglued together) circuit board was created from scratch and etched myself, perspex was moulded to the correct shape to refit into the existing main body (which had serious modification to fit the flat boards in!), currently perfecting the way the lens fastens to the body.

Thanks for the positive comments, they have cost me a fair amount both £'s and time. Still for the only set like this on the planet I think its worth it.

Might consider making a couple more pairs but would end up needing to charge £300 for them.

ill buy them if u paint the parts u have black red 4 me lol. they look sweet.

like two weeks ago i entered this forum and i foud some pics similar to those, they were from a guy who supposedly he made them, does someone knows where they are at?

the reason u dont see too many celicas w/ the afterburner tailights, is prolly because there about 400 bucks a pair at Quadconversions.com. Well at least thats the reason i dont have them.

man if i got those ^ the tail end of my car would look the exact same... same spoiler and back bumper. i like them though :-p

"A popular choice is the JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) tail lights that were available from 96-99 in Japan. These are available from your local Toyota dealer and (less expensive) from places like ToyotaWorld.com"


...You sure? I just went today, and they told me they aren't made anymore so I can't get them at a dealership. Just wondering.

dealerships wont distribute JDM parts unless you give them a part number only. Don't walk in and say "Hi, I would like some JDM tail lights"

I can get them here in the netherlands

here's a pic of my lights smoked. did em myself.
