has anyone seen the altezza tail lights?? if youve seen them for sale for 1st generations give me a link please my e mail is jkjkclayton@mchsi.com or if you own them and will sell them thanks

 

As far as I know, there are no 1st gen clear lights for sale, so you might be out of luck. I think a couple of forum guys here might have done a mod to the original lights, but only as one-offs for their own cars. 'Sides, the original lights suit the car better than a clear set would.

*drops dead*

 

does some one want to tell hime that all that makes his taillights have color are some easily removable color lens the mod takes about an hour if your slow and you paint them to look nicer.

I have clear tail lights.

I made them myself. I'd make them for you for like $150 if you give me your tail lights (ship them to me, then i'll ship them back to you.)

check out my page:

www.sounddomain.com/id/iotusrx7

those are my old ones (they dont look as good as the new ones, those were kinda a prototype)

My new ones have clear lenses inside, replacing the stock colored ones, pictures will be up in the next few days.

 

ioTus, i just made my clear lights today, installed some red l.e.d.'s, im just wondering if you used l.e.d.'s and had the problem with the brake lamp light comming on... is there an easy fix?

 

No i used bulbs for mine. They seem to work great for now, I'm goign to get LEDs eventually, but for now these will do.

I've heard of that problem, no clue how to fix it.

 

I also removed the inserts and now have clear taillights. I think they look good.
Check out my pictures. web page isn't done yet still working on it when I can find the time.

i think they didnt make altezza's on supras and sevens for a reason. man im glad they didnt. my PERSONAL opinion is they are WAY to played out, and if anything, make them a brighter, cleaner red, but thast just my opinion.

 

I hate to disagree. Have you Seen the MKIV Supra tailights? Or the New RX-8? Definately Altezza style lights.

 

the supra lights are supra lights.. i dont consider them altezza style. and the rx8 lights.. yea, thats a big thing i hate about the car (not the reason i dont like it, just something i dont like about it).

some of the carbon fiber altezzas are OK, but its the chrome blinding that throws it all off, plus everyone + their mom has them.

 

well i guess a stupid question still gets replies huh?? i want to do that mod. but i dont know where to start any tips??

 

I would only get rid of the lenses so that i could replace the bulbs with coloured ones.

 

i do have to say iotus did a good job on his. once his cardomain site is back up, look at that. i read it and its pretty informative. not that i plan on doing it

 

i had the same problem with the led's i went to apc supermax xenon colored bulbs
work great, nice and bright too

 

Shouldn't this be in the RICE forum? Remember an APC banner plus red and yellow paint equals 50 extra HP on your mom's car. LOL

 

Haha thats funny because my friends Mom drives a 99 Expedition with 22" wheels and altezzas

will any one give me a walk through on how to make tail lights like iotus' tail lights????

 

I cleared my lights and used the colored bulbs and my stop lamp light comes on.......Why is dat???......I know clears are ricey but at least when you do it on a 7 they still kinda look factory......

 

do a search allready jeeeze..

 

come on i took out color plates and i dont know where to go now

 

can any one give me tips on making them like iotus??

 

If you Search, it will come. <--Click here.

 

I knew this thread would be flame bait. Clear tail-lights on a 1st gen look very ******* gay.
