    I would think they are ok. Pretty sure that's just OEM from Japan.

    They're not bad, and they are made in Taiwan.

    The link wouldn't work for me, but it looks like the same auction I did a little while back. If it is what I'm thinking, it's just the taillight housing, no sockets or bulbs. But it's in great condition, a little work to get the lights in. All in all it took me around an hour or an hour and a half to carve the holes so the stock sockets fit. But I think it looks great and I got my set cheaper than stock OEM or even Altezza tails, so...yeah. Sorry I don't have pics at the moment.

    BTW my price ended up being something like 89.99 with 20.99 shipping, came in 4 days.

    they're not oem.

    if you've every been in an accident, you have 3 choices for parts usually. OEM from the dealer, pretty expensive. used. cheaper but might have some imperfections. or from some one off brand. cheaper, new, but in some cases might not fit as well or something.

    so yea, those lights are the one off brand. im not saying that they are bad. just saying that they're oem replacement. like if you were to buy new taillights from pepboys or something in japan.

    I have them.. The only problem I ran into is that when I was instaling them on the car the socket wouldn't line up with the hole in the body because the bulb sockets are in the way, so when I was tightening them the screws poped off. Not much of a noticeable gap but its nothing a dremel couldn't fix. Just cut a bigger hole for the socket on the body maybe an inch all around.



    edit: oh yeah, they're DEPO's

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    That's the manufacturer, I believe.
