these are the ****, wish we could still get them. i'm pretty sure they never made proper 95/96 red/clears but they made all clear ones where you could paint the bottom red.

Those lights actually look not too bad! A bit shiny, but very modern and updated. I like them!

Those look good in person. The close up makes them ugly. The classic max red clears look clean and simple while putting led boards in them looks the best. I'm going to make those when the cars on the road.

I came across these tonight. It looks like they are back. However I'm still working on my led tails. Just wanted to share the link for anyone interested

Best looking tails, IMO. although I had to use a dremel to make them sit flush into my trunk. They were sticking out a bit. Free shipping too.

Am I one of few who rock the DTM tails? Debating on getting either the smoked or clear for $90. My current lenses have slight cracks/wear in the plastic.

Yeah, back when DTM tails were popular (about 5-7 years ago), there was no such thing as smoked tails that you could easily buy on Ebay.

I only did this during summer because it looked way better than the stock look. I wasn't up for spending that much on tails but considering it eventually.

I had the same issue with the ebay tails not sitting flush.. dremmled down the plastic around the mounting bolts quite a bit to make them biasshhes sit slush. I went with the smoked ones as well.

Yeah, they light up. Also, no problems with the local PDs.
