I like them. I have the red/clear '95/'96 Custom Enterprise tails made several years back. I didn't think they would ever make '97-'99 diamond red/clears. I did a backward trunk conversion just to get diamond lights! On these new ones, I am concerned that it might not look right being able to see the light bulbs. I also am very curious how that will work with the lower, outer (194?) bulb? That bulb on the OEM lights is behind red plastic, now it is in the clear area. So, you'd either have to use a clear bulb which will look awful at night with your headlights on, or stick a red bulb in there which won't look right during the day. I'd like to see them on a car with bulbs in them, day and night pics.

So, nothing new for the 95/96 guys, eh?

These have potential, but I'll save my final comments for when someone installs a set.

There's already those fugly diamond cut red/clears for us.

Someone needs to make an OEM looking set in either red/clear or red/smoked. That would be something nice and new, would sell a lot too since the only other option besides the diamond cuts are David L's and you know how rare/expensive those can be.

These?
http://cgi.ebay.com/95-96-NISSAN-MAXIMA-RED-CLEAR-TAIL-LIGHTS-LAMPS-DIAMOND-/130451931937?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories &fits=Year%3A1995%7CModel%3AMaxima&hash=item1e5f8a 8321

Not OEM at all. The only ones that look OEM are the David L's and the outter clear part never matches the inners with those. '97-'99 guys are luck with their OEM looking eBay ones.

This is sad. I know if some OEM style red/clear or red/smoked tails came out for us '95-'96ers, I'd be the first one to try them.

Someone sack up and buy a set of these already.

for these you need to smoke the whole thing or atleast smoke the clear part. then it looks 100% better IMO. it looks really good smoked.

anyways these new lights do look interesting. i thought i read in a recent thread that a member was going to buy these?
