I had mine tinted pretty dark. I drove around for 2+ years with them and never once got hassled by the fuzz. I recommend always driving with your lights on.

as dark as they may seem... here is how they look when lit up. I'm not worried at all about getting pulled over.

Also, i swaped my 08-10 tail lights and got 05-07 oem tails FTW... way better!


This is how they look lit up...





and when the brake is applied...

Looks a little dimmer on camera. Its definatly bright enough. I'll be fine.

I'm actually surprised that they emit even this much light as dark as they are....

I actually bought a pair of 05-07 tails that was tinted by a shop selling parts on ebay. If your interested e-mail Mike at finnfactor@yahoo.com

Dam those are dark as hell lmao....look real good though. Mine were dark and I found that I didn't have any problems at night...but during middle of day when suns at its peak,couldnt see a thing. Got warned by a cop once but he couldn't do much,wasn't his jurisdiction. But I'd get honked at all the time during the day cause no one could tell i was breaking.

Either way, goodluck!

haha yeah its hard to see during the day when the sunlight is hitting the tail. But the 3rd brake light isn't nearly as dark as the tails. So no worries.
