I wonder if there is any case law about being rear ended while sporting smoked tail lights and losing the case because of them...

Their* not there.

Sadly, it won't be up to you to decide whose fault it may be. The third brake light is not a good defense, a third brake light is an "auxiliary" warning device, unlike the main brake lights which are a "primary" warning device.

But if you're getting just the reverse lens (white lens) smoked, then I think it will look great.

Sathinas my stock tails are already smoked on the clear part. No offense but there is alot of non legal stuff done to my car and many others up here I didn't make the thread to turn into that discussion just wanted to see some smoked led tails for my next mod.

Saboli Thanks for the pic so you got a full smoked tail? Or is that what you did after you didn't like them. Im looking for led with just the clear smoked if there not the way I want them I'll just get the regular ones and smoke them myself.

Your welcome. This is what i did after i bought it. I bought exactly the same one you posted. The red part was too red for my liking thats why i did it like this. I would suggest you to buy the regular one and smoke it yourself the way u like. Thats what i shoulda done.

Those look pretty dark, but the brake light still shines nicely.

1. I'm not offended. Hard to be offended by a self admitted criminal. Especially one on the InternetS. So it's all good, no need to worry about offending me.

2. Whatever illegal" stuff you have on your car, it's your business. We're not talking about what else you might have that's "Illegal" on your car. We're talking about tail lights.

3. By definition, bulletin boards (Forums, as we now call them) are all about "dicsussions". People will write something if they post pictures of their tail lights. That by definition is a discussion (albeit, a one sided discussion, since you're implying you won't "talk" to them)

Didn't say nothing couldn't be discussed I just want to see taillight thats why I started the thread. I see topics go so way off from what the OP is about . I'm not one to say that what I did to my car is right when I know its wrong I don't run around tearing up the streets or causing trouble so don't get harrased.

Long as you know that threads rarely stay on topic.

I'm not one to say that what I did to my car is right when I know its wrong I don't run around tearing up the streets or causing trouble so don't get harrased.
Long as you realize that (and you seem to), and you take responsibility if something happens because of it, you the man.

I don't understand were the "so don't get harassed" came from, but I assure you, I feel less than harassed by you. Or, maybe it's some younger crowd slang that I'm not getting. In that case... Fo shizzle, y0! 'sall good. W0rd.

@ vizionclk430: Take a look at this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...-progress.html. Started out about tinted tails and then went OT, but there are a quite few pics.
