With 5% tax - wiring money fee to the company having them ship to my house its was $479. Shipping to the East coast about $25 -28 and West about $18-20. Comes with 2 Silver coated Red and 2 Silver Coated Orange Bulbs. These Bulbs are not the best kind other aftermarket ones look waaaaaaay better.

The wait was almost a month after I paid for them. These are NOT made as they are ordered, just behind on orders when I placed this one.

What is the layout on the center trunk section...is there a bulb in the upper and lower red section? Or does the center bulb reflect into that like the stock units? Looks lie kyou need a red bulb there.

JDM models have inner central section lit as a part of break signal. So when you break you have something like: =o[ ]o=. Lights come with 2 red chrome covered bulbs for inner section and 2 amber chrome covered bulbs for outer section.

i got a the 91 LS400 with the clear red tailight and i got a ticket for my break light not being red in the center. well it was red for a while but faded out cheap .99c bulbs hahahah. but everytime i step on the break the light shows white well the cop was kinda blind too he thought that i was reversing when i step on the break it was a funny incident and also my signal was not orange i put the regular bulb and when i hit the signal the cop say it looks white to him. that is ilegal he said. but guess what i still got them on.

All the way back to the original topic your car looks GOOD!!!! I've seen a few black LS with smoked tail lights, that would be my choice, particularly since you have such a dark tint. Love the clear fronts, it really cleans up the look of a car, and amber is such an ugly color. No comment on the rim style but they tie in very well.

Most of the cool parts come from Japan....... The VIP scene over here is the Newer the car fixed up the better. Why would they want to continue making or improving parts for cars when 60-70% of those who have money for mods / parts are getting newer / nicer cars.

The younger folks dont have much $$ for Mods......... so you being in the U.S. must stay with the times on how Japan does things cause thats where most of the parts are coming from. Maybe you dont like the VIP scene but thats where most of the cool parts come from (Japans VIP scene)

Japanese and a few from the U.S. gave me a hard time how come I started a Car Club two yrs ago with 1994 and newer cars only. Almost all of them agree with me now Newer VIPcars is the ONLY way to go.

Example...... Last yr at a VIP event. There must of been 15-20 JZS147 Aristos out of 100 plus cars entered. This year maybe 4 out of 150 cars entered. Thats a car 1990-1997

I dont know how many older Celsiors / LS were entered but i do know NOT one older LS took home a prize.

I would rather see a 97/98 & NEWer car with less Mods then a OLDer car with alot of Mods.
