The JDM tails are pretty much the 94-96 style with a 97-98 look. all yu need is the middle part thats connected to the trunk. you can get the 2 corners from a junkyard or something. you dont have to import the whole thing from japan. just the middle like i said.

Good idea, I had it about 5 months ago.
The truth is (since I have looked into it extensively) that they will not match. Ok, I have a 98 right... If I went and bought that middle piece from a scrapyard and tried to don it on my trunk it would look wack and there is no way to mount it flush.
If I bought the entire trunk lid it would fit... but stilll look wack. Becaues the lens colors don't match.

I have tried and tried to find a way but it seems that the JDM ones are the way 2 go! I'll photoshop it so people can get a visual of what I mean.

well, that might not be entirely true, cuz my taillights look a different color at different angles, so it may be the angle of the pic, now i pulled up next to a 97 and the lights were the same color red, so therefore u MIGHT be wrong, not saying u are. For the 94/96 those tails will fit perfectly, but u might have to do a little re-wiring as always

well obviously the middle piece isnt gonna fit onto your 98 cause you have nowhere to put it. unless u mount brackets and hang it like a picture frame. :shock: you'll be dumb to do that. haha of course you wouldhave to get a 94-96 trunk lid and work from there. have fun guys.

I am new here, i mean the club, but i have been coming to the club to see the forum. Anyways i have exchange student from Japan in my class and he owns a 93 galant in Japan, which is just like ours here 94-96, he says he might find tail lights from Japan and send it to me for $300 or less. It seems like a good idea.
