'07 Style Tailamp Retro Fitment Info.

Hey guys,

Just curious if anyone has any information regarding any common problems that someone who attempts this be likely to face?

I need to order a second set of tails while mine are being painted and thought I might try out the new ones.

Regards,
Tom

They are plug n play. No modifcations needed. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm actually starting to like the 2007 taillights.

I always wanted the LED Tail Lights that I now have on my '07, but truth be told, the white/clear lens area is a rather crudely done item... far too big & gross. The Pre '07 lamps were much nicer & finer looking. Even the previous generation Toyota Camry Tail Lamps were better executed than these. But I guess they felt they had to do something to change the look from the rear... and the lower trunk lid chrome strip wasn't enough of a change.
