Exclamation Ladies and Gentleman, your total Altezza selection.

#1

$195 calvinwch

#2

$260 apursell

#3

$290 www.altezzalighting.com

#4

$290 www.altezzalighting.com

#5

$149 www.ebay.com

#6
OEM
$160 for ONE replacement light.


My left rear tail-light was cracked on Christmas by my little brother's head. My other brother (19) was chasing my youngest brother (5) who ran head-first into it and cracked it completely. At first it wasn't even noticeable, but after a few months in the elements, the crack has begun to grow and seperate, and water is leaking into the light. So I have to replace it. I tried getting a used one on ebay, but got screwed.

Above are all my choices for lights, as well as the costs. Help me decide which ones to go with, considering not only the look but the cost.

EDIT: MY CAR IS SILVER

I wish I had some closer pics. #4 and #5 look the same to me, with #4 having some sort of film over it or read plastic.

What the...? Did anyone else notice that #4 would cause your reverse lights to be a CERTAINLY ILLEGAL red?

The harnesses probably just connect in different places. They all seem to have clear reverse lights from what I can see.

More than likely that's just one of those dummy lenses that's more a reflector than a turn signal. I'm willing to bet the reverse light will still be the one to the side of the rear turns.

I voted for #4 and I'm gonna be getting a set of those myself I think. But good point about 4 and 5 having similar styles if not identical.

wow! i never knew that many lights were available for the lancer!! i am totally digging #4!!! glad you showed me those!! and please stay away from chrome tail lights!! it looks like it took them 2 minutes to invent #2. and those more than likely require fitment. boo! go for #3 or #4.

#1 is totally hot, I like it a lot, nice new gen style caught my eye immediately, #4 seems to be the same but I dont like the dark colors, that's why #1 got my vote.
