I bought blacked out headlights on the bay and they are fine.
Many have gotten tails there and are happy
Could be the same place makes parts with different things stamped on them for OE and aftermarket use
As long as DOT is on them, you will be ok

 

I didnt realize we had aftermarket tail lamp options for our TL's?? Are you sure they are not OEM ones being sold on eBay for cheaper price? Please provide link.

 

I believe the type s tails on ebay are factory ones....but also more money than from Tim @ hondaacuraworld when you factor in the shipping

 

Some are OEM, some are aftermarket that look like OEM. The aftermarket ones are most likely made by the same company that makes the OEM ones. Quite a few of these are cheaper than OEM, even with shipping. As 01tl4tl said, as long as they're DOT, you're good.

 

Straying away from OEM may leave a margin for condensation. If the savings outweigh the cost, go for it. If they're minimal, get OEM ones on groupbuy with the sidemarkers for $289 shipped.

 

I recently purchased a set of Type S Taillights & Smoked sidemarkers on ebay.. Should arrive soon, i'll let you know how they work out..

cool tell me if you like them, if you do i might end up getting them myself

 

I say dont do it! I have seen smoked sidemarkers and the quality of them looks different from what the TL's TL-S' come with! some of the non-OEM lights are made by a company called depot. i mean, it looks like a carbon copy but you can run into all kinda fitment, condensation, etc. issues or maybe not. me personally, i would just go with OEM knowing that i got a FACTORY UPGRADE rather than a non-OEM one. my $.02

 

from looking at them.. I dont see much difference compared to OEM vs oems being oems.. but yea i'll keep u posted

 

please do

 

sellers definitely on point not bad feedback at all, he's also got those pedals which are offered at a good price

update when you get them, maybe I will order those pedals

 

link to those pedals?

 

The lights that 99 posted look close to OEM but look at this link below. Is it just the protective plastic film or do the tails look like they have black trim instead of the OEM gunmetal color? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/06-07...3756.m20.l1116

 

Ehh... package was missed Friday and Saturday + Required signature... Will attempt to redeliver tomorrow. So, hopefully I get it tomorrow!

 

aww lol what a tease

^those pedals look the same as supercomputer's.

 

so how did it turn out 99vtecaccord

 

did you get it yet? pics?

 

sorry for the delay guys... and yes these taillight came out perfect! These are made by DEPO. Perfect fitment... very identical to OEM. Overall.. I'm very satisfied with these!! Also, they are stamped with DOT

only downfall is.. having to remove the rear bumper for installation!

 

yup... looks like fishcake is going to have alot of azine members ordering because those look oem to me

ps... need some more 3m tape on that rear lip

 

yea... more 3m tape would be nice. Had to undo the rear lip corners to remove the bumper!

 

very nice. they look the same as OEM. how's the quality?

 

are the side markers good? i heard their crap on ebay. The tail lights looks good, side markers looks good, but are the quality good? such as the lights and stuff

 

the quality is perfect. Perfect fitment, everything bolts on, and very identical to OEM.

Yes, the side markers were a direct fit, again... same as OEM. DEPO products are known to be good.

 

wow.........I've been eyeballing these aftermarket lights for awhile and I never thought they would look that good. Can you take an upclose pic of the side marker?

 

I was waiting for someone to try it first, now, I am going to get it too !

 

i'll have some picture this week... i dont have my camera at the moment

 

just order mines from ebay =)

 

Can anyone tell me how to remove the tails, because I bought a set, but I can't remove the originals. I removed the four nuts that keep the tail in place, but I just could not remove the tail. Do I need to remove the bumper?

 

yes, you need to remove the bumper. if you do a search for "bumper removal" on here you will find a video that someone made of how to remove the rear bumper...it's actually fairly easy

 

Thank you so much, I did it last night, and they look great!
