Post Question about Inspire Tails????

Does anyone know if the Inspire Tail Light is exactly the same as the original orange/red tail. Because I heard that the wholes for the turn signals are different. So you may have to tape it on. Is that true?? Is it an exact match????

Exact match BUT The turn signal hole is bigger, so you need to wedge it in there, and put some tape, too.

Yeah, the tail light assembly fits perfectly with six bolts. The lights all fit excpet that the Japan Inspire taillights use one different bulb mount, so there is opne bulb where the hole is bigger. Actually, mine is not taped at all. Mine is perfectly wedged into the larger hole and has not come loose in over 10k miles of driving. Dont let this minor detail stop you from getting the tailights. they look sweet.
