http://www.sell.com/2MRNF Im looking for version one jdm tail lights just like in the link above. I have seen the version two in the parts section of this sight but feel that the version ones look more celica-ish if there is such a thing.
Plus i want to keep it looking some what stock but allow the pure amber corners to add a specialness to the car. This way only some one who really knows 6th gens can make the distinction between the two diff tail lights.

Check the FS topic, there are few of them for 60$

I was told that they are not the same as stock oem tail lights because the amber corner is amber all the way through. I know on my celica the amber corner has a redish peice.
Would the ones for sale being ordinary still have that redish peice?
Humm perhaps ill take a better look at the ones i have on now lol but then again i began looking for a replacment because one of them is cracked.
Thanks a lot and ill check for FS area

Yep, you're right - it's a subtle difference, you can see it when you compare the two though, for example a quick browse through the member rides found:
G6-SS2-UK's SSII:
Click heretranxendz's GT:
click hereI see the US cars also have side markers at the front as well. Is it required by law to have front and rear side marker lights, or is it just something that some cars have?

weee so there is a diffence between the two and it not some cheap scam passing stock lights off as jdm lol for a while i was bit worried.
n e one know were i can get these. As of now im kinda inbetween the 2nd version that kalokb's has up for sale and the the all amber ones.
Just a question but living in cali i dont want to put lights on that everyone else has. Can n e one in cali specifically the LA area tell me if lots of ppl put the jdm ones that kalokb's has up for sale? Ill keep an eye out next time i drive around too.
As for the side marker things i dont think its maditory by law as my 01 corolla didnt have side markers.(yes i use to be a rolla owner of which i kill civics with) However i have been told that for the corners on the head lights there is a law that states that they must be amber and not clear, thus making clear corners not legal.
thanks for the info and pix very helpful and allowed me to c the all amber lights on actually on a car. Now im must deicide between which jdm pair i want lol.
OH and again does n e one know were to find the all amber ones.
thanks

http://www.6gc.net/photo.php?file=/images/...photos/88_3.jpgthese have the jdm lights that ive seen on most cars and up for sale on ebay.

Juzstyle's
http://www.6gc.net/photo.php?file=/images/...otos/1305_2.jpgThese are the ones with all amber corners.
I like the all amber ones because they retain the stock looking celica tail light set up which kinda evolved from the older generations. Plus like i said before because the amber corner is such a small detail and they are so similar to stock only ppl who really appreciate 6th gens would beable to tell the difference.
Again does n e one know were i can get the all amber ones? perhaps ill PM the two with the pix ahh lol but if you can tell me through a post itll help me out and who ever else might stumble upon this thread. After all thats y we all come. Infomation exchange lol
