I have a question. Aren't these the Jdm tails that fits 99-03 gallants? His ad says 97 but isn't it the 97 galant in Japan? Please help I want them bad.

These will fit our 8G's. Those are facelift tails, I think they are actually 1998 and up taillights, the pre-facelift were from 1996 and 97 and look like this:

Yea man! Those things are steal. They're known as 3rd gen tails. In Gregs pic, 2nd gen tails.
We had a poll and the most votes said 3rd gen > 2nd gen.

Yes sir, maybe you might think of removing that fake fender vent for a cleaner look, perhaps lower the car too.

JDyal
02-15-2012, 01:54 PM

Best method is to solder the wires together. It makes a proper connection and has a better chance of working longer than taping wires together.
JDyal

Good idea. I wasn't gonna tape but thinking of crimping them and then put electrical tape around it

I did that with my emblem light and it's holding up fine. I actually ordered a white one to avoid cop probs but of course it's blue

Pure white LEDs have a hint of blue, and they're legal. ;)

Yes I know I like the blue one but I orderd the white and they sent blue

Lmao me being the cheapo that I am, I'm going to try to sell it for a little more or equal to what I bought these for XD

Now there's a little crack in one of them, you can't notice it unless you're up close. Now I filled it up with clear silicone and was wondering if it'd be a good idea to spray the red part of the tail light with red tint spray, it was just an idea but I want opinions first.
JDyal
02-18-2012, 03:29 PM
Also what's the best way of opening them? The white part is really dirty and I think it's the inside...suggestions?
