At first I thought they were selling euro lights or somehting, but, they are stock lights, and they are from Japan. They even havea picture of the car with them on it infront of a store and has Japaense writing, so Asia does rule, especially Japan!!!

That's a great price for those....I think Paul (smokingSS) said they usually go for well over $300 a set. He's got a set on his car.

They are completely different from the 97-02 ones.

Here's the 97-02 light:

They are also known as the "European" style tailights. I personally don't care for them, but I like them more than some other aftermarket ones out there.

I think they would look the best on a black car with niteshades on all but the reverse lights. I like the 97-02 lights like that, but I think the exports would look even better.
