I'd rather spend $250 on new altezza lights. To me, it looks like some old parts from salvage yard or something. I still prefer that part red rather than those cheap plastic looking. Just my opinion.<P>bungo

There was a typo on my previous post.<P>I'd rather prefer the rear corner right in yellow rathar than that in red. He's selling that for $50 and still want some for shipping. And also, he has only 14 feedback at ebay which makes him not that ... Oh well, I believe the stock one is way better than that.<P>bungo

I guess someone must like all red cuz it has come up on the board sooo many times. Old parts from the salvage yard? Sh*t these look brand new..And everyone that has seen my car agrees that all red looks much better than that funky yellow marker.<P>[ October 19, 2002: Message edited by: cjthor ]<p>[ October 19, 2002: Message edited by: cjthor ]

[mitmaks]

look fine for $50, cant beat that, they would charge like $100 on junkyard, for my '94 eclipse i had to pay $200 for both

Those do look awesome. I don't see the point in buying them as it is really easy to do yourself. Looks very jdm.<P>Respect will always come down to perfomance and clear lights are very very rice.

Too much red and its almost purple.. Not enought and the yellow shows thru

Hehe looks good but I think you should have tinted the part that was already red to match the rest of the lens, just a thought

Oh, plz calm down. That was just my opinion. If I make you feel bad, sorry about that. <P>Once before, I talked a tech guy in japan about the glass headlight (we can't put them on ours because of reflection or something), and he sounded like there might be some aftermarket ones over there. If you're still working on mx-3 by next june or so, I can visit some junk yard and look for some. I'm from Hiroshima, japan, which is also a Mazda town. What I mean is mazda has a headquarter there. Most people drive mazda there and they have more cars that you even don't see in the market. I just saw a video from japan about mazda's new family car 'Atenza' which is middle class car. You can have that in coupe, wagon, or sedan. It's probably as big as Camry or Accord, and the retail is around $20k in japan.<P>About that ebay, I didn't mean to offend you or anything. If you could've told me, I could share the way to sell or make it hit on the search even more. For example, you might wanna add the word 'nr' that stands for no reserve. And you start the auction from 50 or so. Some people just surf over ebay and the most common word people type is nr. They just type nr and buy something they're interested.<P>Bungo

Thats why I put both.<p>[ October 19, 2002: Message edited by: cjthor ]
