Kuklaki if your still interested in them, they come up on ebay quite a bit now. I love the look it gives the back end now. definetly worth the money.

Sweet!
Although, pardon me for saying, they'd look even better without that third brake light (damn USA laws
).

You know what's really funny? Europeans go nuts trying to get them for their cabbys.
Mind you they want to change the front ends to have the American Rabbit square headlights too.

Personally, i prefer them with the clear bulbs. Dont ask me how they do it or where to get them but i know they exist.
I think it looks much better without that little speck of orange. cheap mod too so its not bad. Those lights look great!
i wanted to get some for myself but they are quite pricey..
I ended up with factory *uncracked* tailights from ebay. $30

The orange bulbs don't really bother me all that much, but I do want to go with LED's. And yes the third brake light does suck, but its something I can live with. Maybe one day I will shave the third brake light along with the door handles and trunk lock, but that probably won't be for a while.

Looks like I might be shaving those door handles sooner than I thought. Just found a couple spots of rust on the base of the windshield frame. Back to the paintshop it goes!
Still undecided if I want to take them off though.
