..I dont think I would either. I'd almost do that sooner than spend big bucks on headlights.

I saw clear corners make some, but I don't think I like those. The taillights being majority of red is nicer

@Kohinoor

Did you basically get some LED boards and fit them in after you take off the lens? Really interested in this, I think 97 tails could use more style like yours

you can use led boards or led strips. i opted to use led strips. you can diy for $200-300 in parts. i think thats about what i spent + new tail lights. the hardest part is taking apart the passenger side lens without breaking the key hole.

Yeah... I do LED tails and the 97s are a *****! I made some really baller ones a few years back and sold them for about what I paid to make them plus the lights. If theres interest I can make another pair. Im debating on making a set for my drift car. I was going to start a business like clear corners but cheaper but there wasnt enough interest out here in Vegas.
