best thing to do is NOT get them because they will make your car look crap!

If they did lights with the clear lense and black inner that would look HEAPS better than the **** ones I have seen on EFs with the frosted lense. Like the same style as the Commodore/Monaro set still retaining class and looking good at the same time. Unfortunately no1 has come up with any for EB/EDs.

I wouldn't mind just having the indicator clear and the brake/tail still red.

It's not as easy as just cutting the lights. You can cut the garnish easy though. |

The clear ones on e-bay would look good depending on what you do to them. Also depends on what colour your car is, I’m thinking of getting them and doing some mods to them. :Up_to_som
