Not bad. At least you don't see the yellow from the turn signals. But if I'm gonna pay that much I'd rather get the clears.

looks nice. but i dont think they will last you for long time afterall original stuff is the best you can get. anyway just to perform the look of your car these lights will do great job.
i wouldnt hesitate spending $100 on these taillights just to give the look. i like them!!!

Those are the TYC tailights, also sold by Matrix. They look nice but I think they are too chrome/shiney and might look tacky.

I know I mentioned them before, check out the APC Titanium bulbs-chrome finish but have a nice rich color when on. I use them in both the front and rear turn signals. The amber bulds under clear the clear lens bugged me from the day I bought the car-It was my first change. I picked them up at NAPA. http://www.shop.com/op/~APC_Titanium...-prod-33832838

IMO no need for any threads on this topic, but we'll let the other one live for now.
