clear front and clear tails are 2 different story...
clear "alteza style" tails just don't look good on euro cars...

I actually traded someone my stock ones on this board for them. This was over 2 years ago. I believe FrankW has a set he wants to swap someone too. But his is done differently. It is in the Classifieds. Good luck!!

white and whiter
01-04 taillight won't work on the 05-06. The bulb holder plate can be swapped, but due to different position of the bulbs you will lose the inner running light/foglights when you use 01-04 tail light on the 05-06 and you will get a bulb out error code. When you use 05-06 tail light on the 01-04 you only loose the function of the rear foglight and there's no error.

I'm looking to trade my 01-04 tail for the same.
