Pictures of my VX tail lights

I know my camera is the suck. I had to enlarge them because of it and that's why the pictures suck.

Anyway I got these off ebay australia and the seller was nice enough to send along a monaro wiring harness, because I figured I might need one. I only had 2 issues with this.

1. The harness plug doesn't *exactly* fit the opening. The pins line up fine, but the plastic doesn't. I forced it in and they work.

2. The bulb holders don't *exactly* fit the openings in the back of the tailight. I kind of played/forced/twisted until they complied. I am dreading when that first bulb dies, because it will be a pain to get them back out of there.

I could have rewired the harnesses, that would have made things a little easier, but I didn't feel like it, and everything works fine now.

On to the pics:

cool! i love sleeper mods like that. you know it's different, and everyone else who knows anything about the car knows it's different, but the general public would never have a clue!

Definately looks nice, not sure I would do it though just because I don't feel like forcing it in place

There was a picture of a red GTO with no spoiler with those lights and it looked awesome but I cant find the pic.

Looks great. Actually fits the styling of the car better than the stock tail light assembly.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I really love these lights, I think they look better than the stockers. I also like that 99% of people wouldn't know they weren't stock, because they flow with the rear pretty well.
