Default Civic Coupe - Smoked Or Clear Rear Lights

Any idea's where I can get clear or smoked rear lights for my 99 Coupe ? I've seen them on people's car's but so far am unable to find them on the mighty internet, or any mention of them on here.

Looking for something a bit different to the Lexus clusters.

Anyone who has em on a silver coupe and has pics if they could post em that would be muchly appreciated.

Cheers folks.

the reason they may be so difficult to find is that they arent in production anymore. they dont have the colored reflectors so they are illegal. euros are legal, notice the red reflectors they have. my suggestions is if possible, use a heat gun to seperate the plastic lens from the refelctor, remove it and then try smoking the lens

Default Clear Rears

I've seen the half smoked and since my coupe is silver I think the clear/red rear cluster looks better. I know you say they are illegal but we have other cars over here which have clear clusters which have reflectors in them. Somone told Nopi does them but I cant find them on their site.

Any one else got them on there cars ?

Ho hum, we keep looking
