Tailight issue
These pics are from gripforce-cl65. I hope he doesn't mind me using them.

I just noticed that on these two pictures of his tailights the three center stripes light up.



My 65 doesn't do that.
Any reason why? Is something wrong with mine?
Actually, his is the only CL I've ever seen with that feature. Is there a button to press or what? I think that makes it look much better.

I can't afford
you're not talking about the reflection caused by the flash are you? the stripes between the turn signal stripes

Is that what it is? You sure? I mean, his tailights are on as are his side markers.

I think the side markers are just reflectors, it looks like the flash has lit them up. Personally I would paint them the same colour as the car.

Oh, understood. Thank you, I appreciate it. Would have been better if they made the stripes light up.
