Default Red/Clear

Ill take the red/clear ones. And they come with all the required bulbs correct? Im hoping these will look similar to the euro BMW 3 series tails. I think those are the cleanest looking tails ever. I think this will be a nice upgrade from the stocks. And where am I shipping to?

Thumbs up

Damien... The lenses look Great I like the more finished look, the horizontal line they give the rear end with the upper white and lower red.
I wonder about the color of the side lights and turn signals, are they mandated by law? haven't really looked at tail lights on other cars. Maybe Dan has some ideas with his 35 watt bulbs. Great Job!

Dave... Don't loose heart! Michael was just musing over some real world concerns about your liability...something those of us with gray hair think about more than we did when younger. Sometimes the marketing can be more aggrevating than the creation. I admire your innovative nature and suggest you keep your eyes open for products you might be able to create and introduce.

Dan... Are there amber 35 watt bulbs available (I love the ones you sent. when I hit the brakes people react!! They think there's a nuclear meltdown just ahead of them)

Damain,

If you are taking orders, I am ready to ship you mine when you say the word. Email me at sh944@rennlist.com. Also, which do you think would look best on a black car? I am thinking red/clear, but I am willing to listen to 'list wisdom, if anyone wants to comment.

Great job!

Regards,

Damien i love your tail light mod, and all though i wont be able to order a set for awhile (probably may or so), I have the center light on the rear that says PORSCHE across it, can you update that too so it matches your new red in the tail-lights?

Did that make sense? If not, i blame the lack of sleep.

Default Nice rear!

I was following my wife last night(she in the 83 944)(me in the Taurus-whats wrong with that picture!) and for some reason it struck me that there is not nearly enough light displayed from the rear clusters.It looks like(poor design) they(Porsche) forgot to put bulbs in some of the areas that would give the rear of the car a little more illumination. Anyway,your custom design looks really good(more up to date).
