go to jegs.com, buy a racing helmet. that way you MAY survive when someone tries to pound your head into the ground. also there is a parts database on the main division of this site. try there.

I am for JDM tails, but there is an orange piece inside the light, the corner section. Does anyone know if/how you can remove that piece w/ out damaging the unit? Let me know...thanks.

Only way you might be able to remove it is by throwing your tails in the oven and heating them up to the point where the glue holding them together gets to the point to where you can pry the pieces apart. After that just remove the inner piece if it's an added section, but it might actually be part of the housing so you can't remove it. Don't know until you try. So get to it!

what neipas is saying is to do it the same way as making the 96-99 corners become "clear corners". hey, go check and see if you can see a screw or anything in the back by the yellow lens, if not i doubt you can.

ok, i hate to be a bitch, but that's totally edited. if you have seen the movie the stupid civics they drive to hijack the trucks don't have altezzas.

as for the JDM tails, you can do it i'm sure, but at 350 a pop, i'm not messing with them.

Lets see - Lexus develops the "Altezza" tail lights - they're a huge hit, become ricetisized, and in turn Toyota ppl hate them...is this ironic to ne body else?

i don't think that it's just Toyota people. I know like 75% of the people on the DSM Boards i browse hate them and the only reason i don't like them is because they are now made for every fricken car i see and it gets annoying.

I'm going to risk my neck by saying that the main reason most of the people here hate them so much is because they don't make them for our cars.

I think they look ok - much better than most of the lights they are replacing, and tell me seriously, if they were readily available for our cars, none of the members of this site would go buy them! You know you would..... biggrin.gif

I dunno how it is in Australia, but here in here US the "euro style" light is the calling card of the typical ricer. Its practically standard equipment for them along with rediculously loud exhausts and generic stickers. Personally I don't want to be seen as one of them as they are the ones who give car modification a bad name (*cough* 2fast2furious). Just my two cents.

Altezzas look good on lots of cars. It's just that they don't look good on lots more. It's really just my preference though, I don't think they'd look good on my car.
