hello ppl im brand new in the neon world i got a 2002 neon and im thinking about doing some stuff to it i also own a 93 honda civic coupe already modded and i got the neon for a daily beater i want to get a set of good springs or coils that lowers the car but i dont want it too rigid if you guys got some comments about that that would be great and finally the reason for this post is that i ran on to this pic in the neons.org forums and i really liked these tails so anyone got a clue on the name or where to get them? i cant find anything like it .
thx a lot for the help in advance and expect to hear more from me ill add some pics soon i just got a pair of black housing headlights i think u guys got a name for them anyways thx again for the help and hope to hear from you guys

any clues on where to find a pair?

Only way you can get them to my knowledge is to browse the forums and wait for a pair to come up for sale. I know someone had a pair for sale but I can't remember if he sold them or not.

haha - in these days you can use a service called "post office". They do that for you...
You can find them here in the f/s section or in the european forums.
Ask the Germans:
www.neonowners.de
The Netherleands:
www.neonsonline.nl
Or look at german ebay
www.ebay.de or netherlands
www.ebay.nl
Shipping from europe to the states is for such a big packet like 20-40$.

No offense, but your post kinda makes you sound like you are. Calm down there...
What we mean by Europe is that you need to get in touch with someone in Europe that has some for sale. Or check the for-sale boards here. They come up from time to time.

i learned one thing in the forums:
everybody wanna have those but noone wanna pay money for it.
last times i tried to sell a set here it was very very complicated and the users offered ridiculous low money. so yes i could buy and sell those every now and then (whenever i find a set here) but after that bad experience i don't wanna anymore.
Too much money pending, too much stress, too many problems and in the end i can be happy if i get the invested money back.
For such a very rare part that is unbelievable!

oh cool - i think THERE it must be even more rare!!!
Look at german ebay for "Rückleuchten Chrysler Neon".
Tell me if you found something and don't know how to handle that.
But if you have an eBay account you can also log in into the german ebay and bet there.
And international shipment is easy. Not cheap but easy.

yeah its always funny that we look for your stock parts and euro guys look for the us OEM hehehe i guess is cuz everyone else has the same parts as you do that makes us want the rare different stuff =)

I bought a set from marakka, about a month ago for under 100 bucks, you just got to wait for them to come up and just snag em as fast as you can...
Best of luck to you!, they look awesome, when wired up correctly.
