clear tail lights !!

[my240likenoother]

I made my own euro tail lights and they look phat !!

it is not that hard to do it and it only cost me $60
to do it. e-mail me and i will give you more details
on how to do it!!

[kitoro]

think you could post pics up for us to see what they look like?

[West]

email me on how you did it and I will post them on the site for everyone.

Pictures?

[Jeff240sx]

What model car do you have them on?  Just post the info so you don't have to type it to 300 forum members!

[my240likenoother]

i need someone to tell me how to display them on this sight i tried on night and got sick of it. So give me some help  and i would be glad to show them off
Or if you want to e-mail me I will send it that way

[my240likenoother]

pic test

[kitoro]

send the pic to West so he can post it.. should be easier that way.. rite?

[anthony240]

yea, send it to West. You need the pic to be on some sort of webpage, not your computer. West can upload it to this site and that way we can see it and you can now post it on various other sites <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Hrrrmmmmm..........

Lemme know how to do it! I wanna do the amber section of Kyle's s13!!!!!!

[misnomer]

Yah, I wouldn't mind changing the amber of my own to clear. Can't say I'd go for the full clear setup, just not my style. The amber just doesnt fit well with my metallic red body

[masterk]

If anyone's curious and willing to do the work, i have a site that has instructions on how to do it. &nbsp;

http://www.homestead.com/aerokits3/Howto_Cleartails~ns4.html

Just try not to mess up your only set of tail lights.
I might end up trying it b/c i have 2 sets.

[custom240sx]

I know that www.clearcorners.com sells stuff like that.

[Jeff240sx]

I really don't wanna offend anyone...
MasterK...
That site is kinda... well... a dumb person must have written that. &nbsp;I caught at least 3 times when he was saying &quot;Glue these things together with some kind of glue&quot; and &quot;Some sort of office lighting.&quot;
WTF is that?!?
Anyway... I would like to do this, but what was with the flourescent light covers? &nbsp;What is wrong with just plexiglass? &nbsp;Or the covers after he peeled off the red stuff on the inside of the lens?

I'd like to know how 240likenoother did his! &nbsp;mabey he could be a little more clear.

[drifterx]

another thing... those light panels r thin....
and the break easily... i dont know guys.... like if u throw a pencil at it and it will crack

[my240likenoother]

thanks misnomer
so what do u guys think???

[West]

I know a bunch of guys from Twinturbo.net do this for other Z owners for a fee. Im sure they could do it for our cars.

I have tried the whole process before but I dont have that kind of patiance with delocate peices so I gave up.

Search tt.net and find out how to do it yourself, its not that hard really.

OK, maybe I'm a month late, but has anyone tried buying a can of talight paint and just painting your lights red. Red and white looks really good on my S13. I wouldn't trade them for clears-ever. (I've got the trunk, so maybe that's why. Anyway...)

[Jay Wood]

There was some drifter girl with a purple 180sx in super street a few issues back and she had clear taillights (clear where it should be amber). When i looked closely, the middle part of the lights that should have said 180sx said 200sx. Do 200sx's (i think that is the 240 from europe...)come stock with those because if so, then just order them or something. &nbsp;Might be easier then gluing stuff together...just my 2 pennies.

The whole &quot;make them yourself&quot; idea up there... try it if you have 2 sets of tails, as someone said. I wouldn't risk my only pair to destroy them. And who knows, they might come apart in rain or something. I dunno... I'm just lazy, so don't take advice from me.

i just might have to try that someday. i think it would be fun. i might just go to my gramps' house... go inflate the tires in his/my 84' sentra. and i just might go vacum it out and change the oil, wash it, and pull it into the garage. pop out the tail lights... clear them out... drive it around a couple of times. take it back and park it. :) i love messing with car junk.

Got the same problem. I pulled my dashboard apart today, broke five billion parts <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[carnal c30]

My friend had S13 Silvia lights that looked all red but blinked amber. I dont know how exactly to explain how the lights look but I'm sure someone knows and has pics.

[carnal c30]

its the 180SX lights... silly me

[carnal c30]

hey Nismo 240Sx... was that you who was on the maxima.org forum a couple days ago? &nbsp;If you are interested in a max, let us know cuz its a great idea!

stock 0-60 for a 5spd is 6.6 stock and with basic bolt ons we can do low 6s and mid to high 14s in the quarter

and yes i know this is a 240SX forum, but to have you all know I love the prospect of owning a 240SX soon <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Nismo240SX]

no man that wasn't me, i was thinking about buying a 88 maxima though to drive in the winter, but i wouldn't be able to have insurance on it if i did...

[my240likenoother]

that is the way i did it i looked at that site and went to it

[groundzero]

I want to do this to my signal lights but Im afraid if I break the yellow lens I might accidentally break my break lens...and that will be a major mistake.

[AJ]

i just got another set of tails.. so i'm going to attempt this very soon.. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> &nbsp;I'll let u all know how it goes.. hehee,, hopefully it wont' end in disaster..
btw,, any ideas on how i should do it, i'm planning on taking out the yellow turns... but i also was thinking about doing some sort of Rx-7 look.. with round parts that light up instead.. what do you all think?..

[my240likenoother]

this winter im redoing the tails
im doing the ups truck LED lights
red,red.amber

[AJ]

is anyone thinking about redoing their s14 tails?.. i'd be interested in what ur ideas for them r. &nbsp;I&quot;m phychd to get modding them, but i'm hesitant to do anything that i'll hate when i put it all back together, &nbsp;i was just wondering what ya'll thought.. -AJ

(i paid 120 with shipping for these badboys['nother set of tails],, i don't want to screw them up!)

[LanceS13]

hey my240...what kind of spoiler is that?

[vancouvers14]

as soon as i get my 97-98 lights, i'm gonna mess with my old ones. &nbsp;been wanting to for a while, but i need other lights to drive around with. &nbsp;
