Default New TYC Tail lights on NB '06 tC *Pics*

Hey all,

First post here, I know the pics of these lights are rather scarce so I took a few shots as soon as I finished installing them on my fiance's car. Needless to say, she's pretty happy with them!











and finally, I had to haze up the lens a bit so you could see the LED's better

also I'd like to add that installation was VERY easy. Took me all of about 45 mins total (15 mins just unpacking the damn things lol)

The bumper doesn't need to "come off" just loosened on each side. 1 screw and one bolt on each side.

I still hate those tails having yellow in them, but I really like how they compliment the third brake light when lit, enjoy the car and the stares!

They definitely look better on a darker car! I saw a pic of them on a SSM, not so hot. Congrats & good job!

When i first saw the lights on an SSM i thought they were horrible...but they don't look so bad on the nautical blue. They give the car a much different look and will definitly make your car stand out. Glad you like them!

Default LED tailights are some bad *****...WATCH YO MOUTH

I say any darker color TC should have these led lights, for all the other tc's in lighter colors, what can you do?

I prefer the Toyota Allion tail lamps. If you look closely, it looks like the stock tC tails but there's that clear bottom part for the turn signals. Also the brake lights resemble the new M45. The Allion is made in the same plant as the tC. The TYC resemble a stock Toyota Camry.

Thanks for sharing. Reinforces my choice to add these to my FM tC that should be here by next week! BTW, NB is beautiful!

Still not feeling them... then again, I have a lighter color. They're not too disgusting on dark tCs, but I still don't really like them.

The expensive cost of these lights is what is keeping me from getting interested enough to buy them.
$275.00 for clear and colored plastic and a bunch of LEDs?! They certainly look nice, but I guess I'm just a poor boy!
Rather just save for different rims/bigger tires (225s??fit??) or the supercharger or some good aftermarket fog or driving lamps (Hellas) to put into those holes at the front corners of the car.
