New smoked tail lights...

Just got these new tails. Work perfectly, and made by same manufacturer as OEM (Depo). Got these from ebay (item 120845580258). No errors and are exactly like the oem, except the look.

Thanks. They are a very clean look. Very stock. I may just sell my oem lights, since these could pass as OEM.

The lights look awesome. Were they difficult to install? Are they street legal? Sometimes our police can get a little picky.

Thanks! Easy to install. Remove old, install new. They are the same lights. There is no red reflector in the housing, and that could cause issue. But, the lights come shipped with 2 reflectors that you can add to the rear of the car somewhere (tag) if you want. Or drive with your driving/parking lights on. Cops here aren't that picky.
