euro-type tail lights for 90-93? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Do they even make the euro/altezza type of tail lights for Celica's older than '94?

I've found clear corners and stuff for the front end of my '91 GT but I don't want to bother purchasing them unless I can get the tail lights to look euro or altezza too.

I couldn't find any for myself. Since yours is GT some smoked lenses exist. I can't find any aftermarket ones for my 92 st.

Do you have a link to the smoked lenses? I'll check them out. I really wish some company would make the Altezza type lights for the 90-93's.

What sucks is I have found euro lights for Corolla's as old as '88. I owned an '88 Corolla before my '91 Celica GT and why they make stuff like that for a non-sporty car like an 80's Corolla over a 90's Celica is beyond me.

Dude. Don't get altezzas. They are ugly.

:

They can look good with tons of work which i assume you won't want to do.

Why do you call them euros...? the rear light cluster in North American, European and Japanase cars where all EXACTLY the same (for the ST182X) EXCEPT for the corner light that in Euro/Jap markets were louvered and amber unlike the North American version that is red and has a light per Fed regulations.

The ones in ray_sir_6 pics an link are just some Brits idea of what Euro lights COULD have been but not the reality.

Hey there,
I totally agree with Celica4life....i don't know why they don't make euro taillights for the 91-93 celica's....i tried that link and couldn't get it to go through.
Could someone direct me on where to find these 'smoked' taighlights for my 93 celica gt-s!!??
Thanks!

Because "euro" lights, or any at all, for that matter, don't make a car "sporty"
Also, if you look at the design of the lights, it would look even more rediculous than normal.
