    Pretty New To My 96 Galant With One Question

    well i bought my 96 galant back in march, since this is a customizing forum i only have one question, IS THERE ANY WAY TO CHANGE THE LIGHTS IN THE REAR?! the 96 galant (im sure you guys all know) has that strip connected to the lights, and i personally just HATE it, is there any way to change that? thanks!

    or the 97-98's. You would need a new trunk lid but the corners are the same. Personally I dont mind the stock tails...I have grown to love em

    No Emerson he is saying that he doesn't like the part in the middle what he wants is 97-98 tails. I would think that they would work you will just need to part that goes between them too.

    You will need the 97-98 taillights and the middle part for sure. Idk why you couldn't just put that part on your trunk but these guys probably know more about it than me so just to be safe get the truck.lol

    the 94-96 lights are highly sought after, but I know what you mean, lol I love my 98-style tails. The trunk lids are the same i believe. But don't quote me on that. In theory, you would need the tails and the center piece that says galant on it. see if there's one at your local junk yard, you can try test fitting the pieces to see if they'll just bolt on

    This is true.lol I have actually took second looks at 626s cause I thought they were 7gs. But I think if I had the 94-96 light I would get the 97-98s but if I were to choose the best looking ones it would be the vr4s.

    okay it may look a little like a 626, but justin your 7ga front end is ugly haha :) I've had a few people tell me the tails make it look more like a squished 240sx from behind
