Well no. Sorry fellas, I stated already I was an idiot and don't know what's good and what's not. Try not to embarrass me TOO much further than I've done myself already.
ANYways, when I bought the Integra, it already had after-market Altezza tail lights, which have small cracks in them, hence moisture gets inside when it rains. I wanted to replace these, and the car did not come with the OEM tail lights. I noticed OEMs are more expensive, I saw them going for around $150 on eBay (not to mention the dealership wants $236 for EACH). My car is silver, I figure for half the price some clear ones will look just fine. I know they're gayer, but I'm not trying to impress anyone.
The box these tail lights came in do state they are for "off road or show only". I will write the guy, and since he lied to me about them being DOT approved, I'm guessing he will take them back. I'll keep you guys posted on what happens, but in the mean time, can someone recommend some tail lights for me that won't get my head ripped off in here? Post some links to some eBay auctions or something, if you have the spare time. Thanks guys.

They're one of the largest parts recyclers on the West Coast and will ship to you for reasonable money. Buy yourself a set of 98-01 coupe taillights and swear off the cheap eBay TinkerToy crap.
