Default smaller tail lights for 1990 LS

How's everybody?

So I'm looking for smaller tail lights for my 1990 LS400. I've seen pictures of a 1990, with tail lights similar to the 1995 tail lights.

I couldn't find a pic to post, but here's a link:
http://www.wald-japan.co.jp/wald/cat...ive/ucf10.html

I also came across a japanese site that did have the 'kit' (included a panel to cover the new larger license plate area; and smaller 'inner' lights). I'm kicking myself for not remembering what website it was.

ANyone?
Thanks!

You sure about that retro? I don't think they added remote trunk open until '93. Mine doesn't have that feature.

I like the fact that would make the car different, but I wouldn't do it unless it's a dark color car, I like it how it looked on the wald website but dont like it how it looks on that white one, I'd rather the long tail lights on a light colored car.. my 2cnts..
