stock ones are clear, i had to go to autozone and buy some red LED bulbs. also, if your getting a post - 05 car, you need to buy the bulb holders for them, unless they are OEM mini tail lights

So what happens when you install 02/03/04 tail lights in an 05/06 MINI?

Do they just plug in and work or do you have to do some re-wiring to account for the missing backup lights?

Maybe you can re-wire it so that the top brake lights are backup lights or do people get an 02/03/04 backup light and install it in the rear for location?

as far as i know, they should be plug and play. So far, i've asked two dealers and they said their's no change to that part of the car. I wont officaly know till i get the MINI. But if i do have to do any wiring, it will be ok, I've had to rewire my golfs head and tail lights before. and so far i've had no fires

Annette, if you put anything else in or on your MINI, you will need another MINI to carry all those mods around in!

i had them on my 05.

the top light becomes a reverse light, middle light is still turn and bottom is still brake.

it looks really good with the brake light on the top of the tail light, but it only works with the clear tail lights. if you were to use red and amber 04 lights on an 05, the reverse light would be red.
