lol. love the pc response.

+1, alhtough that photoshop by ba mustang does make it nicer.

 

Well, then if the reflector properties are what is desired then yes butchering a set of lamps is the only way to do it. Thing is most lamps have the same standardsized reflector pattern so a donor piece can be had from many different lamps.

 

Much better!.... still a no but definitely an improvement.

 

I'd like to see what they look like on a different color other than LL. Maybe a black one with the gt500/CS rear end! They aren't terrible, but I wouldn't jump on them.

 

Thanks for the tip as these may well interest some of the UK owners. We're forced to come up with various options to ensure we have orange turn signals on the rear of our Mustang to make the road legal. Mine looks stock but I use the existing reverser as the turn signal which, in turn means I don't actually have a reverse light at all (not a legal requirement in the UK).

The only other alternative we have at present are these, which I'm not so keen on.



The American Muscle version is a little more subtle.

 

No only is it more sublte, but it looks like there is reverse lamps in the inboard clear section only. If so, it'd be pretty easy to slap an orange bulb in the outer clear section and then have both clear reverse and amber turn lamps. Definately better than the ones with the huge clear section in the middle.

Question - has anyone tried putting a bright yellow bulb in the red housing? Would it show through orange or still be too red?

 

the problem with the american muscle lights is that only ONE white section works, the other does not have a bulb. The only way i see it working is if you can make your own opening or figure out a way to add a superbright LED for the reverse or turn signal

The ones I like are what is found on the Formula Drift cars, they kinda have a euro look to them. If I were to change to anything other than my smoked stock ones, they would be it. I wonder who makes them...

 

Where do you get these from? I think they are quite unique and don't think they look that bad, especially if you were to have them smoked...

There's one. Although they'd be quite expensive to get to the states, nothing says you can't have them.

Oh, and +1 on the extending the center white parts down all the way, and making just the surrounding bit reflective.

But -1 on the only the insides bit. Sucky.

/So overall, that's a big 0. Ah well.

 

I like em, in fact I'm thinking about them for Whinnie.

 

Nope. not for me.

 

i think these may be it..or something very similar anyway: http://www.mossmuscle.com/Shop/ViewP...eIndexID=66859

 

I noticed this already. I intend to use a side marker lamp socket and drill a small hole to make both clear sections light up for back-up lamps.

This can be done for the EU spec cars for turn signals if you use an amber bulb instead of a clear one.

 

It will show only red...

 

What amazes me is that a company will make those things, but not a set of tail lights like this for our cars:


or

 

Simply amazing how many people on here are afraid to tell someone that something is friggin' ugly.

 

I don't think it's fear. I think it's being considerate of another person's opinion and feelings.

 

Sorry but the amber turn signal a just plain ugly!

 

I read somewhere that orange turn signals help "alert" drivers by 5% and may become mandatory down the road.
