TYC is crap too...yes yes i have the dredded altezzas....but i get condensation in both of mine as well...prolly just gonna put the stock ones back in with the amber piece taken out...

 

so true

Luckily though I never ordered altezzas, but i thought about doing it many times.

 

make them yourself

 

Ok I think I'm going to take out the amber reflectors out of my tail lamps. Do I need to put an amber bulb in though?

 

You can if you want to. It'd be the legal thing to do and still look good as well. I did mine and got shavings on the other side of the lense so I got to take them apart next week, clean them, and then put back together. Ahh.. another day's project..

 

first..its good that u are not basing ur descision on everyones here, be urself and your car will be YOUR car, not HAN's car!!

second, i dont know about APC, i personally am tired of seeing GIANT APC stickers on windshields of trucks and cars...makes me puke. I currently have clear corners on my 96 accord from APC i bought from Advanced Auto Parts. So far they havent leaked nor have i seen any condensation inside.

third, i will state my opinion on this. Even if i had all the money in the world, i would keep my stock tails and take out my amber insert(which i already have done). I think it looks best IMO.

LOL Yeah the day I picked up my car I went to advanced auto and bought the APC clear corners, so far so good

After tallying up all the money i've spent so far, i've decided I can probably do without the S-type tail lights for now. $130 is a good bit of money, and with my second year of college coming up soon, I will probably need it. Besides, I could use that $130 and get my car tinted.

Side question: someone told me about a gold tint? wtf is that about, and how ugly is it?

 

Uhh...i dont know..BUT..it doesnt sound good at ALL!! Unless u got a gold car i dont think it would look good. I can imagine mirror tint thats goldish, i'm sure it looks like that...NASTY!! Maybe the pimp ride's will get it, i'm no ghetto rollin foo here!

YES...if i had $130 i would put it into tint as well, my car has NO tint on it right now!! Yuck to me!! I would just go with ur standard black tint, prolly around 30% or 10% if u wanna be bold.

Dave

 

Well I'm still trying to figure out what the legal limit for tint is here. I have one group of people saying 30%, and another group of people saying 35%. I guess I will have to call an inspection place and ask. Is there much difference (besides 5% ) between 30% and 35%?

And yeah my car is gold (well, champaigne-ish gold I guess, check the ebay link for pics). But I think i'll stick to black.

 

$90? Where?
