Default ´90 4dr Integra taillights, from where?

Hello guys!
As some of you may know, I´m from Finland and don´t really know which companies are the biggest / best in your country to buy this kind of products.. I´ve looked for taillights from tens of websites, but found nothing. I´m not looking for OEM lights, but neither lexus/altezza lights. Could there be any lights for example like OEM, but with brighter lences or what they might be called..? I have found of course a lot of taillights, but they are always only for 2dr Integra. Is the difference big to 4dr lights? Can someone help me to find something, or could it be so, that no-one makes "spare part" / "tuning" taillights for 4dr? Year model is 1990 as above.. Thanks!

The 2Dr Tail lights are about 4" longer then the 4Dr tail lights, So they wont fit without heavy modification's....

No company make's aftermarket/custom tail light's for the 1990-1993 Integra 4Dr's...

But you can do some tricks to the 1990-1991 Tail light's.

Like mine...





Get a bottle of castrol super clean (Purple power works aswell)... Remove the tail lights from the car obviously, Remove all wiring and bulbs... There's a white piece that you have to pry out to get the wires off... Take the tail's to the sink and rinse with warm (not hot or cold, but in between) water, Then add the de-greaser into the tail lights (throught bulb sockets)... Then add some warm water and slush it back and forth until the pink lines turn white... then set out to dry for about a day.

Here's some pictures of a friends (2Dr Tail lights i did).

Compare stock to this tricks.




It's easy to do and takes about 20 minutes total, The only hard part is getting the wires off the tail lights...

Ok, thanks about this! Maybe I´ll have to try that thing.. But I´d still have problem with those lights, because steam and water gets into them quite easily.. I´ve tried to fix them, but hasn´t helped much.. But I´ll have to check them more properly next time, or if I find some cheap pair of new or used ones from somewhere, I could order them also.. Let´s see what happens!

Check your tail light gasket, Those go bad often over time.

Yeah, must check those... Although I think, that the steam goes between the two glasses and I think that´s hard to fix. But I have to check them properly this time, as I said.. I have the whole winter to do that.. By the way, there´s an address where´s some pictures of my recent and earlier vehicles, including Integra.. The latest three pictures are really bad quality, took when it was already dark outside.. But there you may see what´s it going to be about.. http://irc-galleria.net/archive.php?...lbum_id=454333

Could be the gaskets, but the sockets seal onto the housing as well, so I would think that condensation build up is because the lens is peeling off of the housing or has a gap somewhere - I'd heat them up with a hair dryer (to dry out the condensation, take them out and dry them out completely) and try to get the "glue" holding the lens onto the housing to reflow a bit or just run a bead of some glue around the edges. If you pull them out, look at the edges and see if there are any small gaps. Maybe the vents on the sides are clogged?
