I agree with bitesize. How much are you gonna be selling them for? I might want a set in the near future except for a coupe.

Taillights are nice but he wasn't the first and surely won't be the last to make custom parts for our cars. I'm seriously considering keeping my carbed accord a carbed accord. I don't want to think carbs are dead and are powerless. Only bad thing about this is people will pm him so much that he will get overwhelmed and will just stop making parts like most people. (not saying he will or won't but so many people want this stuff and not many people can make them or want to.) I personally like my all red tails but I have made many custom cleared lights for these cars. I think it's just awesome that he's willing to take the time for this but I just hope he doesn't just say I've had it since he will get a ton of people wanting them and he won't have time for his personal stuff.

They are $75 plus shipping. I think that's resonable thinking of all ot the materials I had to buy plus the tail lights themself. And as for the coupe lights they are different because they have that black piece at the bottom of the taillight. I will have to get a pair and experiment with them.

Thanks but I think Yk86 deserves the credit it was because of his how to on making these lights, that gave us the opportunity to make our cars look better. I just want to help out also.

-Mike Yeah I see what you are saying Mike. I'm just going to take my time making them cause I do know people want them. But its not that bad spending a hour a day working on them during my lunch break. My goal is to work on them at home from my garage once I get a house and then I can make them a lot quicker.

That's reasonable. I think that the coupe lights are exactly the same except for that black piece at the bottom, but I'm not 100% sure.

Humm, those look pretty damn nice. Will you be getting a better picture of them? How visible is it that they're custom? If they're hard to tell not being custom I will definately buy a set from you.
I wonder if it's possible to clear out the Vigor taillights?...

Yes. I can take a better picture of them. And you can't hardly tell that they are custom. I'll post more pics soon. And yes I can clear the Vigor lights but those will be harder to find.

what kind of material are you using for the clears? Another question is does it leak into into the lights? since you are putting a custom clear piece on it i would imagine there are some fitment issues unless you are god. Just a few questions, not to cricticize just want to get a lowdown on the product.

Hey thats a good question. I use plexiglass and the flourscent light cover stuff(office light cover) and as for the fitment issues there were some but I got them all taken of. I wouldn't want weater to get inside of the taillight and short it out. It just won't be good business to sell a half done product.

I took some more pictures of them today at work, but I left my digital camera there. So I'll post more pics when I get home from work tomorrow. I took some closeup pics also so that they will answer a lot of your questions.

I was waiting for you to reply. I need a test car to see how these fit. If you have some free time this weekend we can install them,see how they fit and takes some pics for members on here to see. You can PM me for a time and place.

Yes I got it. Are the European lights the same as the U.S. tails?

bullard123
10-29-2004, 02:38 PM
Alright guys the person that wanted to buy the tails had a coupe and these are for 88-89 accord 4 door. So to be fair to everyone I put them on ebay for $75 plus $15 shipping. Don't worry if you don't win them because I'll be making more for the 86-87 4 door and possibly the coupe (they have different tails).

thegreatdane
10-29-2004, 02:50 PM

No they are not but the shape is the same as 86-87 US style. But I'd like a set of 88-89 style.

Hey Bullard...Sorry I didn't get to you sooner. But, I'll be able to meet you this weekend. It looks like Sunday is gonna work, but I'll PM you with some more info tonight. You can take pics and show everyone how they look on the car. Thanks again. Did you already put them on eBay?

Yes they are on Ebay, but the listing is for one week ,unless someone uses the buy-it-now option. They are at work though so I won't be able to get to them until Monday. Maybe we can hook up Monday sometime to install them on your car. I'm home around 6pm from work. Let me know if this works for you.

I stay south by the World Arena. And someone bought them alreadly but I'll tell him they will ship out on Tuesday. I'll PM you and give you my phone#.

I take it that since you had to custom make the taillights, they dont make any aftermarket taillights? Is this the same for the corner lenses (i just got my 89 accord a few weeks ago and dont know what parts are made for it)?

BDaccordguy
11-07-2004, 12:01 PM
nobody makes taillights for the 3g. However, ProCarParts (find their stuff on ebay) makes clear corners and clear front bumper signal lights for it.

bullard123
11-07-2004, 12:28 PM
Yes BDaccordguy is right nobody makes aftermarket tails for our accords. And if you have a hatch they don't make clear bumper lights for it either.
