Default Old RX300 question? Black Altezza lights

Not trading in my RX300 yet...

Does anyone have the black Altezza tail lights on thier RX300?
I see them on ebay now and would like to see an actual photo of the installed set.

Default pics for ya

I just installed them 2 days ago. I used the wiring harness from the procarparts for the outside lights but the stock light sockets fit great into the lights on the hatchback, just a little fyi if you end up getting them. I will get a pic as soon as possible. I have a 2000 silver rx.

Default www.procarparts.com

Go to www.procarparts.com and pay a straight $189.00 plus shipping so you dont have to bid against some bonehead.

Saurus-

I'm waiting for your pic too. How does the black look with setup. I'm use to seeing the chrome found on the later RX300, but never seen the black. BTW, Procarparts price went up to $209 for the set.

personally i like more bling on my car, but the black thing is very unique. I think it looks good because i dont see it everyday out there.

ive seen them on ebay and i like them alot. it would esp look good on a black rx i think. but i still like the chrome, it matches the other chrome pieces and rims etc. but i def like them alot. HOWEVER..... give it some time and im sure all the ricers will switch to these black ones.

saurus - nice work with the cell phone cam!! the pics look great.

so basically, are they the same as the original lights, but smoked in black?

"ricey" is generally viewed as a bad thing. it's meant for overly tricked out cars that look ridiculous to most people. so anti-rice is generally a good thing.

Anyone with a graphite RX300 have these installed? If so, I'd like to see a picture please

Do you guys think it'll look nice? I'm strongly considering these.

Thanks.
