Hey guys, its been awhile since I posted on here, but oh well. I was looking on rksport.com and I found some really cool retro-style taillights with a black background. But they are almost $300. So I think Im going to clear them myself. I dug up old posts but they were for older gt's. Is clearing the tails as simple as taking a screwdriver to the red glass in the tail light? Could someone please tell me how to do this or direct me to a post that will help? By the way is this a risky mod, should I just buy them?

I have tried couple of aftarmarket tails for 99+ GA and hated all of them. I don't think they go together at all. I say clear the stock GT tailights, or tint them, or just leave it.

Personally, I'd say just tint what ya got. I don't know why everyone want to change the stock lights, well, ok, I don't like the se's as well but I think the GT tail lights are great looking the way they are.

I don't care for the fully cleared stock ones, however the ones we have are stock GTs with just the turn signals clear and amber bulbs installed.

I LOVE them. :)

Different without having to be tacky, trendy or tasteless.

(not saying they all are, I personally like the ones with black housings, but most I see are)

You just use regular 3156 or 3157 amber?

I like my stock tail lights... I think they look just as good as most aftermarket ones. If I did anything, it would probably be to get some of that tint overlay stuff they're making for us now.
