Here is a light update:

![http://www.blazinlow.com/s10blazed/taillights_installed.jpg](http://www.blazinlow.com/s10blazed/taillights_installed.jpg)

The top panel is in (can’t tell in that pic) and the face peice is tacked on. The lights are also mounted and wired. I have 1/2 of the peices beside the lights (to close it off) done, just have a lil more to do. I’ll get better pics sometime in the future. That one is from my phone at night.

couldn’t you use some neater looking tail lights? have them flush with that rear panel… maybe some vette tails or something like that?

From the other picture it looks like there are braces in the way of making them flush. Unless the lights were smaller, then they might fit. :dunno:

I chose the wrangler lights for their simplicity. I dont remember if the vette lights have the reverse in them or not. But that was also a reason for them. They are pretty flush. Most of the light is recessed. About 4 inches worth. The outer most lip is flat against the rear panel.

here’s the latest update: All done and working minus some air system issues that aren’t extremely important. I just need to get it ready for paint.

Looks good and its pretty cool, only problem I see is two things the cops are still going to harrass you about. First is it doesn’t look like you a plate light which will give them reason to pul you over and harrass you. Especially because of how unique looking that is.

Second they may say the lights are mounted too high for the vehicle. Lights have to be mounted within a certian distance according to bumper height.

Just food for thought.
