Co-signed. Though it would be cool to have bragging rights, I just am not hXc enough to buy "official" taillights. Now if I was making a lot of money...

I'm still trying to find some feedback on which ones are good and which aren't. There are so many out there, especially on ebay.

Which ones plug in just fine, don't crack, and don't trigger any lights on the dash?

Got the outers from Carson, inners from someone on Ebay. The inners did trigger the dash light, but pulling the bulb is a quick fix

What do you mean "pulling the bulb"? Thanks for the help! Your tails look hot!

He means pulling to bulb on the instrument cluster that shows that you have a tail light out. You get rid of the light bulb and the light never comes on again...

Got it. Thanks for the clarification. My main issue now is that I just don't want to buy crappy tails...but with ebay it's so hard to tell.
