[youpey]

I really like the taillights on the chevy trailblazer

I have been looking everywhere on the net, but cant find ones that look like this. I really like the stacked red circles to the final white circle. I have a dark blue 01 explorer xlt, so i would prefer to not have chrome colored tail lights. the closest they can look like the trailblazers the better

ne1 know where i can find these

i have seen those before...they are the closest match. The only thing i dont like about them is the circles are not centered.

Just incase you did not know. Those are not custom tail lights on that TrailBlazer. They are stock. My brother has an 02 TrailBlazer and that is what it came with.

B4 you buy!

Before you buy any aftermarket replacement lighting, I recommend you read the FMVSS 108 standards. It could save you a $100 ticket as well as the price of the lights!

i'd say all altezza tail lights are DOT approved so no worries there

Not necessarily, while I was searching for this info, I came across a site showing manufacturer recalls for Non Compliant Products and there were a lot of Altezze's on there.

It's up to you the buyer, check first and save money or take a chance on talking with a trooper and shelling out even more money.

I had a conversation with one yesterday morning, he wasn't very happy.

Those reg's are Federal and applicable in ALL states.

I know they are stock, i was using them as an example of what i am looking for

i tried to read the document for fmvss. it is impossible to read. It made me want to rip out my eyeballs with a dull plastic knife. How can i find out easily if they are legal

I know what you mean, I hate legaleze language.

All I can suggest is look at the first couple lines of each section to see if you should read the sub-sections(ie. S5 . 3 Location of required equipment, S5 . 4 Equipment combinations, S5 . 5 Special wiring requirements etc.)

Or you can ask the manufacturer to pay for any ticket you might get.

well i bought them, I will take pics and post it when they arrive. I bought them from euro-tails.com because they have them in stock. So far they seem to be an ok company, email order response, check order status page with tracking number. I will let everyone know when they arrive
