Question Is there a First Gen Tail Light Mod?

I want to do some moding on my Tail lights since we don't have non of those clear around tailights available like acuras and other cars have. Is there any mod that I can do which will help me convert my tail lights into maybe some nice round lights or something cool?

Thanks
Angel

Some people have modded the stock tails to be clear and use red bulbs. Looks nice but is illegal in Iowa. Not sure about other states. I am sure it wouldnt be too hard to make something work.

Really? The 94-01 tails? That have a pretty good selection of tails. You know what would stick out? or not fit?

If you get rid of your stock will you sell them to me? My lenses are falling off.

an IS300 does not have 100% clear taillights. That style is legal, but all clear ones are illegal. I believe it has to do with the fact that they dont reflect red at night.

Snapshot sure thing but only if I do any moding to my tailights though as for now they are fine. I like them but want to play with something else. hehe

LOL@ satoacs

I am filling the entire rear panel flat with the exception of the actual lenses that are removed from the concave part.

Behind the semi smoked outer lenses I will have 4" round LED tractor trailer lamps.
