yes indeed, especially if you did a clear tail light job or a tail light tan.

no just use regular window tan on the tail light but use a light grade so that your tail lights are viewable at night.

i think he's talking about using window tint on the tail lights but not too dark so you can still see through them. i just painted over mine. (wish i didn't) :roll:

Got a question:

Since some of you have already done this mod, could you tell me which wire (out of the three) is the parking lights and not a signal light. There's black (ground), brown and blue. Which one is it (brown or blue)?

**Don't have the tester, my dad has it some place**

Thanks :D

I don't really remember the color of the cable (too lazy to walk outside... it's 1:08am), but there's only 3 wires. One is black (ground) and the other 2 are blinker and parking light. Try those 2 till you get it right (50% of getting it right the first time, if not, second time your chances will be a 100%) lol.
