im not a big fan ...

 

I have the TYC's on my car now.. I like them. cept one is leaking now.. I can't complain I got them for free.

 

I hate it when the sellers only show pics of the product, not of it actually on the car.

 

i know i agree ... like my small mind is suppose to picture it on my car ... this goes the same for rims ... it doesnt help me i just *picture* it in my head ...

 

I have had those black lights for a couple years. The bulb holes on the back were not keyed for the light sockets so I had to cut some with a dremel on the back. I sealed the lights all they way around the edges with plumbers putty and I used self sealing tape around the bulb sockets.

Even with all that I still get a tiny bit of condensation, only in the fall when its foggy outside.

 

Comparison pic and picture of the socket keys (or lack of)

 

AVB! Where ya been, man? BTW, Kinda OT, but are they made by the same company that makes the Evo VII style tails for the Lancer?

 

School, school, school, driving the UPS truck, playing with motorcycles. I figured I'd come back and help if I could.

The manufacturer is SONAR. And the spot the ebay seller says is the DOT thingy, on mine its just a part number.

 

I hate those ones withh the bulging clear plastic over the circles... It looks so lame and taht is all NOPI sells here then they complain that people dont buy them!!! duh!!!

 

I would stick with the ones you have right now IMO, but it is YOUR car. Do what you want to do.

 

I edited the title for you. Please try to make more specifid titles for your threads. Thanks!

 

Whats wrong with the ones you got right now?
Isnt TYC a reputable brand anyway rather than a generic eBay product?

nothings wrong .. just want a new look ... maybe ... this thread isnt helping haha ...

 

I have them on my Lancer.

 

I have the Carbon fiber tyc tails(2 fast 2 furious evo tails). I kinda like them although I wish I got some black depos instead. pics of it on my red 03 on my cardomain page. I had them in VA and they were fine, 1 winter here in maine and one leaked. I fixed with with silicone and then my other one started leaking so I gotta fix that, overall they are decent tails. But I would reinforce the seal to start with when and if you get them.

hope this helps
