Cool 2001 tail lights

I just ordered 2 sets of 2001 tail lights from Steve Ganz at Carson Toyota. Christmas presents for the wife and me. We both have 1999 GS400's. She has Alpine Silver and I have Burnished Metallic Desert Gold

Now I can't seem to find any pictures of this mod

For those of you who have pictures could you post them for me?


Thanks
3dog

You mean pics of the tail lights or of the DIY? Pics of the difference or just cars with the new tails?

Look out your window at any 2001+ GS300 or GS430 and you'll see plenty.

Right click save as for a DIY I have saved on my website courtesy Dex (former moderator here)

I can't get this to open. Something about it not being signed.

Seems that I read somewhere that this is a 20 minute deal to change out. Is that altogether for both sides or each side.

Also seems like I read something about a trick to get the old lens off and something else about an extra wire.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?


Thanks 3dog
