Hatchback taillights on a coupe.... - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #51935 8 posts Started by KB-2
okay...so this might be the dumbest question ever asked on these forums...but is it possible to put hatchback taillights on a coupe??? i mean they are for a celi...and it dosent look like theres much of a diffrence on the 2 models...except the hatch is shorter that hte coupe....so its just a stupid idea that i ahd earlier today....cause i really like the hatch back tails alot better.

thoughts?

No. They are completely different in size and shape.

y would you do that anyway
they don't fit, the amount of modification needed.... it would be easier to have a custom light made out of your coupe ones.. beside curren tails look hawt imho.

i used to have a coupe and their lights are thinner and round off more on the corner etc.
alright...thought so....i just really liek the look of hte jdm hatch tails.

i have currens right now, and those are really sexy in person.

it was jsut a thought..

you can do what i did... remember how the stock ones had 2 lights on either side? and how the curren lights are one solid light? but made with 2 separate bulbs...

well i put some led's in there and then you can put a piece of duct tape to split them apart on the inside of the lense (its ghetto i know) but you can also make the jdm hatch style shape like this \\ for the drivers and // for the passengers

it greatly reduces the amount of area lit up when braking.... and i got worried about getting rearended... so i just left it back as one solid area

but get a BRIGHT led setup for back there... dont get the unnoticable ones... ask anyone who drove behind me while i had them.... its crappy

you know why they put sheep at the edge of a cliff.... that way they push back!(2:27:32 AM) edit: please f*cking work, f*ck, sh*t, piss(2:28:08 AM) edit: that did the trick
