hey guys i tried searching on info on how to do this and what i need but i couldnt find any so please dont flame me

i bought the car with some clear tails and i dont like them they have a crack in it and they dont fit well like oem so i want to buy some tail lights not the chrome ones tho cause those are ugly and i rather just stick to my cracked ones lol but the 00-01 se tails or the red gle ones are the ones im after. what do i need? besides just the tail light? does my light bulb harness thing fit right into it? do i need to do any kind of wiring or buy and different plugs?

anyone who has done this if you can help me out youd be a great help.

 

You need to buy the taillamp assemblies and plug them up, bada bing...

 

Try buying tails with harnesses already on there. I'm selling the reds, check in the classifieds section. I posted them up yesterday. I went with the SE tails. Mine come with the harnesses. Its pretty much plug and play.

 

I think all you need is the 00-01 Wiring Harness, and the taillights search ebay for them or 1AAuto.com for em.....or in the classifieds on here.....

 

thanks you guys are a great help and i might consider your reds but right now im not gonna buy anything cause my car is still in the trying to pass inspection mode lol but how much are u sellin them for?

 

I could do 60 shipped I'm just throwing it out there no pressure or obligation haha

 

As already posted, you will need the wiring harnesses and bulbs from the 00-01 tails as well. Those will plug into your car just fine.

 

thanks guys and toxic ima consider it. im still thinking which one too choose as i have sterling mist paint and it would look awesome with some 00-01 se tails but i also like the reds and your price is good

 

as mentioned above, a1auto and amauto have good pricing on new ones...

thanks idk if i would buy those cause i have aftermarket tails and they fit but fitment isnt 100 percent like there is a 1 cm gap in between

 

For the record, I changed the tail lights on my 02 with Red tail lights from a 2000 GLE, and I used the original 02 harness and bulbs with no problem at all. Completely plug and play.

The bottom bulb base (I believe) doesn't fit in there 'perfectly as OEM' but it will fit in there.

 

thanks for that info nathan and mrEous thanks also i just kno i dont want a/m even more lol i want a perfect fit i just dont see the point in having bad fitment but i am prolly going to get a a/m bumper cover and i hope it fits decent as i dont want to spend 300 on a oem bumper cover -_-

 

or you can jump on the bandwagon and get some LED tail lights http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generation-maxima-2000-2003/654475-what-do-you-think-these-led-tails-our-maximas.html

 

idk lol i rather have perfect fitment then LEDs i also dont see wahts very cool about them also :P

 

Agreed. It would be nice if they were bright but they're comparable to stock bulbs I would say imho.

 

definitely i put a led bulb into the tails i have right now and its only a lil brighter only reason i bought the led was cause im not running the car much and was able to wait for cheap bulbs from yours truly EBAY PERFORMANCE lol rather then spending double at pepboys

 

just wanted to show you guys my new tails i installed it around 2 weeks ago it was a easy process and i reused the used butyl to reseal it twice cause the new tails also had butyl on it. it had a lil gap and my dad was bugging my to seal it also but i dont think it was a issue at all but i listened so i put some ducktape and plastidiped it to weather proof the little crack that was there

 

Dual exhaust?

 

yea it is they dont sound that loud i sorta want it to be louder like deeper tone lol
