So I ordered myself a Clear Third Brake Light from Modern Performance last week. It came today and I got it installed. I have clear side markers coming next week as well so I'll post those when those get installed sometime next week. Everyone says the clear lights look good on the silver and I have to agree. I like it. :thumbup: First picture is BEFORE STOCK LIGHT.
Other pics are after installed and after installed lighted up.

^Ur welcome to ur own opinion. thats fine. some like. some dont. :twisted: i like it the way it is but thanks :lol:

Anyways.........Thanks guys. I actually like my TYC tails. I like the silver/clear look and i think they go well and will even better once i get my clear side marker lights to go with everything. Some will like and some won't but i think all around it looks decent!! I've always wanted the clear third light brake and I've had a lot of people tell me to do it on here and that it will look good. In the end, I think it does. I do still have my OEM lights tho and may experiment tinting them at some point and seeing what they look like..

Ties in with the tail lights nicely. :thumbup: I too have the clear third brake light. I had to get a bulb for it and went to autozone and the damn bulb lit up pink! Was driving around for a week and didn't even know. :lol: Went on eBay and got a 3 LED bulb that plugs right in. Nice and bright!

I like it. I'm considering one for mine, however I may just leave it since I think after i'm done doing what I plan on doing the red will blend in more. Also, not a fan of the ricer tails, but again, its your car.

Had those tails on my silver 02 up until a couple of weeks ago. They look real nice IMHO. I'm going with black housing so I got rid of em.

Less ricer than the Mopar 3d's... In my opinion of course. I think its a clean tail-light.

i think if you tinted them, you'd be golden IMO! :thumbup: Not a big fan of chrome..

but needless to say, your making it your own. nice work!

I like the tails, but I do suggest you tint them with at least 2 coats of Nite Shade.
