Default Altezza TAILLIGHTS

hey guys.. i have been looking around (mostly on ebay) for some aftermarket tail lights... i want to replace them with the stock taillights on my 91 accord coupe.. but the hard part is that i cant find any that say they will fit a 2 door? will the ones for a 4 door fit in my car or not?

Because aftermarket taillights not only look like crap they don't serve any real function over the oem ones. If your stock taillights are leaking then either throw a bead of clear silicon over the tails (around the edges) or buy some aftermarket ones...the only ones I found that look halfway decent are the red and clear tailights.

To answer your question: On a 91 accord the 2dr and 4dr are different on the inside taillight piece, so no they won't fit.

Your going to be flamed but I will try to help you anyway. Did you check out Nopionline.com? Also what about TwiztedOzone.com? That site doesn't really have much on it but call the guy he can get you almost anything you need see if he can get any.

i thought it was only on the 92 - 2 door accord that you could not change them? i have a 91 2 door and i changed them with the 4 door lights. its the samebecause the came off a 4 door so it must be.

My bad you're right...the 92-93's had different tails but the 90-91's are the same.

Yes, they are the same. Also, http://www.nopionline.com has them, and last, come on guys, to each his own, if he wants aftermarkets, its his deal. I've got red/clear aftermarket tails on my '97. Looks pretty tight. I go agree, however, anything else eg. gunmetal, black etc. looks like shat.

Anyhow, aftermarket taillights add 50 horsepower..............right guys?

I think the altezzas with the chrome and red look good on some cars but not all on Accords I think they look good especially 5th Gens and I like the red ones with the clear reverse lights too but other than that most of them are ugly like the carbon fiber but thats just my opinion I'm more a ricer than a JDM guy lol.

Don't do it.
IMO... on a 4th gen, a bunch of round lenses set randomly in a very rectangular outline is an awful look.
Spend your money on tires or suspension or engine mods.
