You need to do that DTRL mod so that your lights can shine through the FTP lenses at night with the lights down, it looks so much meaner in pictures this way. I'll demonstrate tomorrow with my GTUs.

nope no envy... nothing wrong with being gay... just not my style.

See (as posted many times) I think the S5 tail lights look like Mazda stole them from a mid eighties T bird... (of course most of the people on this board are too young to even remember the mid-eighties Tbirds, maybe that is why so many younger people like the gay round light look)

At least with the FB and S4 tail lights you have style, that is not repeated in so many other ordinary cars (OEM or aftermarket).

Don't forget round was the norm for early 60's impala/bel-air/biscayne.

and most other GM product at that time as well...

Scary enough the current impalla has the same style (but they are not as T-birdish; missing the tbird's black or reflector band at the bottom of the light, like the S5 has)

Though very off topic, that was one of chevy's big ideas to make it look more like the impala of old... I was very upset at the new impala, I've been such a big fan of them, (especially the 94-96). Most of the other GM products around that time and prior used the slanted tear drops, the impala was really one of the few that stuck with it (the chevele/nova had a similar design, but that was about it). Now everbody wants round!

On topic: Still some very nice cars though.

Just because the idea was taken from another car doesn't mean it looks bad...With that kind of attitude, if the tail lights on an S4 lit up as a sign saying "I'm Gay" you would like it more because its so unique?

I thought some older Honda the Civic had 4 corner tail lights like the S4, almost the exact same pattern. I don't remember exactly so don't quote me, I know that BMW had a similar four square pattern as well. I like the knock-off S5 lights sported by the older proteges.
