I was going to get new fresh tailights, anything I should stay away from?

I see on rockauto they have just the lens and also the lens/housing. A few different manufacturers. I was going to get the whole assembly... they seem pretty cheap.

Anyone have good or bad experiences? Does the lens just pop off? Or is it better to just go whole assembly?

4 screws and the lens comes off. I bought mine at O'Reillys, and they were very cheap if I recall. Like $12 or something for each of them.

You really only need the lens, the housing is something you can clean and it'll be just fine. Unless it's broken or something that is.
