Just a thought... wouldnt the taillights inside/outside from a 98-99 maxima fit on to a 95-96 perfectly? if so, how much would the inside one on the trunk cost.. think it's a good idea? or should i just get these damn altezzas? i'm in a bind, and running out of time till i leave for school.. i need some advice asap. thanks guys

no they will not fit

They won't fit. Don't buy the ****ty altezza's. Just buy some clear tails for the 2 outer peices, get quality paint, and paint a half red to match up with the inner one's.

Or, leave them the same. :)

or how about taking a dremel tool to the amber part of the stock lights and use some silicon and some clear headlight plastic (molded to fit) and seal it in place...

nah... nice try though
 

Forget it. You won't be able to mold a plastic lens to fit properly. Given the time and effort required, you'd be better off buying the clear APC tails and cutting the clear piece from that. But if you are willing to go that far, you're better off just painting the lower half of the APC clears. That's what I'm doing. As soon as I get a heat gun to pry them apart to paint 'em!

you are also forgetting that on the 95/96 the red part is on the bottom... on the 97/99 the red part is on the top and hte clear part is on the bottom

other lighting...
 

How did you power your armrest compartment neon light? Did you run power directly from the ashtray light wiring, or feed it from somewhere else? I'm looking into adding some interior lighting but I want to make sure I don't run too many lights from one source (might melt the wires, I've been told).

Re: other lighting...
 

I don't know electronics so I just paid to get that stuff done.
