For my tastes, I liked the first version of the all red better. The latest all red screams "Chevy Impala" to me. Will we get a choice here?

Send me your address and I will send you my tailights. Send me your paypal address and I will send you money.

Regards,

damian, also i just needed to know if you ever found that spare DME relay so i could try it. otherwise i may try to bypass it tonight after i get the alternator and stuff back on.

I want to try to start it to see if it still runs before we do the timing. I dont want to end up doing it for no reason.

Still my opinion that all blinkers should be yellow in color for safety reasons, but you look like you did a really nice job on making those.

if you do clear or read you can get abmer colored bulbs that will appear orangeish yellow through the red and still deffenitly yellow through the clear. or you can just keep them as white blinkers but some states really dont like this and you could ge tpulled over for discolored lighting or something like that.

Thats what i was thinking too, kinda like those tailight covers people put on their mustangs. BUT, i think they look really good by themselves, thats why i said i want to see a pic of them on the car.

Yeah I wasn't sure either about that, I think I am gong to be changing the all round a bit different shape, something more square, kind of like in the first group of pics on the first page of this post, Look at the all red one, the shape of the brake light is different..But yeah I know where you guys are coming from on the Chevy Impala Bit..Hmmmm My brother said the same thing...I will keep posting new pics and progress through out the week...

I think the latest all red lights looks more like the 968 rear lights than before.
And that is a very good thing

BTW, Impalas are rare here in Sweden so I don't know about that

If I were to write on how I do this, I would have to write a HUGE article...Let's just say, I get some bulk Plastic from the Plastic Company, I cut it to size, Shape it, And then Glue it....
