they don't look half as bad as the 02 Camry ones, luckily Toyota designed the taillights for the aftermarket.

I'd be really careful when buying APC stuff, they arent DOT-certified as far as I know (unless they changed their way), because they dont have light reflectors/refractors, which the US road law requires. Those definately dont look legal to be used in Finland. So I dont know how things are in your neck of the woods, but you might get a ticket for them.

A lot of their newer stuff claims to be DOT certified. The Corolla one has the cheesy taped on reflectors on the side

Those side reflectors are not allowed in Finland ;P but heck lighting and reflector rules are strict back home, but everyone tries to go around them ;P hehe

oooo :o so APC makes them eh! my buddy just bought an 03 rolla.. and he's been asking me to find him the euro lights... now that I got a manufacturer name, I know a guy that can get them for me.

I'll let you guys know how much $$, and I hope their worth it.

I think theres other places that also make these clear and altezza tails for corollas and the like. Dont remember the name tho...

Flashmn · 12-12-2002, 09:46 PM

Oh gee, I cant think of anything more lame than putting COVERS on your taillights http://www.4apc.net/parts_html/eurotails_eurocovers.htm

***REN69*** · 12-12-2002, 10:04 PM

muahahaha.. that's like those headlight covers with the holes in them for the light to go thru.. ghey! hehehe.. I can just see the idiot that came up with the idea... WHAT! our headlight covers are not selling anymore because people get tickets for having them???? Lets make a hole in them for the light to go thru!!

Flashmn · 12-13-2002, 01:45 AM

I know what you mean, they look sooo stupid.. jeez what people spend their money on... :P

project trueno · 12-13-2002, 02:09 AM

ppl on your rear LOOK at your lights, it gives them a signal to start slowing down, so whyyyyy would ppl want to COVER them?!? or make them so dim?

make your car look like whatever is fine by me, but interupting other ppl's vision, is a big NO NO, safety first

Flashmn · 12-13-2002, 04:39 AM

Exactly, its a hazard for you and for the one behind you. Then headlight covers are even worse, how are you supposed to see where you are going when your headlights are basically blackened dim.

project trueno · 12-13-2002, 03:25 PM

lol what about the ones on Dodge trucks? the light only goes through that "mountain deer" design

i don't get whats so fancinating about LIGHTS, i really don't.

Flashmn · 12-13-2002, 03:32 PM

I dont either man. I dont see why people stylize their car by making the lights worse than they actually are, its already going to the stupidity side when you make things more dangerous than they are.
