Ouch, that's a little too much for me to pay for something cosmetic. PLUS, no one outside the GS community would notice it. Heck, I bet most GS owners do not notice the difference. However, I agree that the backup lights being on the bottom makes it look much better.

Once you have them on, the difference even to you will be so much more noticeable. Trust me, it is very worth it.

Agreed, you shouldn't worry about if other owners or people will notice the mod or what not. All that matters is that you notice it and like it. You are modding your car for you, not no one else...

Junction/Hameed, agreed. I didn't notice the tails even AFTER I purchased my GS. However, after reading the threads on CL, I've began to notice them.

Now, everytime I see a GS, the first thing I look for is whether they have aftermarket wheels or not. If the GS is stock, I just look for the tails to see if they're 01+.

I don't know the correct name of the lights, but I really like the lights that are just like the 01+, however the backup light is crystal white! I forgot who makes them. But those are NICE

Those are the Junction Produce clear tails, If you think $300 is to expensive - how does $1400 sound for a set

It was ironinc that you could not remember the JP tails while "talking" to the US JP rep and the pics of the tails in his sig.
