I do. I have been waiting and waiting for them to come along. They are not street legal in most states (especially in California as you must have red reflectors in back.

If you put on 2 red reflectors, say thin stick-on strips under the tailgate, that will make you legal. In Texas, anyway.

Tyler, you'll be fine. All through highschool me and my buddies had them on our C10's...What are you going to do with your current Euro lights, sell them? I was thinking of getting those clear lenses..but I just want NEW STOCK lenses.

I dunno. I think I might keep them and switch between the two at will, but maybe I'm just weird. Ok I KNOW I'm weird but you guys knew that already. Time to go work on her!

the cops where i live are the biggest punks ever when it comes to small stuff like that. ive been pulled over for not having my front plate on the bumper, instead it was on the dash. Then i asked the cop why vetts don’t have to have front plates? (he walked away back into his car) but i only got a warning. i also got pulled over for having clear turns in front (the stock ones under the headlamp). He gave me another warning even though i had yellow bulbs in them witch was all stock. And lastly i was pulled over for wreak less driving when i was "pealing out". It was raining hard as i was going up this really steep hill. my tires only spun for 2 seconds. im not ripping on cops here, i think they are great, but i guess i am a teenage driver and that’s what they come after. i am proud to say that i have no tickets

Cops pick on "kids" because they fiqure you don't have the money to fight them in court.
Drive a expensive car like a Ferrai or a Porsche and they won't touch you (at least they never pulled me over when I put 60,000 miles on one).

Wow. 122 bucks for some clear taillight lenses. I seen these things at truck shows a couple years back. Can't remember what they were going for, but I'm sure it wasn't even $50.00. Right now I wish I had a few sets. Looks like you could make some cool cash on ebay.

When I drove my 79 Porsche Turbo many years ago, state troopers didn't hesitate stopping me.....The car looked fast...
