Sheefa Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Hi all, These are my rear lights. hey're from a J-spec TT on a 93 plate. I take it these are standard non-facelift lights right? I took a look at Nics facelift lights and they look identical (See here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=76750). So, my main question is what's the difference - are the bulb lightings themselves different? Apologies for not using the search function if this has been covered before yeah! Cheers, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supRo Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I'm not sure about the exact differences but pre-facelift are black (so are yours by the looks of it on the picture) and facelift have grey backing. Ro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 the center lights are different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 26, 2006 Author Share Posted September 26, 2006 Thought the centre lights were different, saw Voos on Mids Gumball and they looked very nice. Didn't know about the colour backing thogh - thanks supro. Anyone know or got a pic of facelifts on a black sup - do they look a little odd - Burna?

jazz1 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 i reckon your ones suit a black supra to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Take a look at my site Greg http://www.pbarfield.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Greg yours are the standard pre-facelift rear lights, the facelift lights have a charcoal grey inner, the lenses are also quite different. The facelift rears also use different bulbs which are brighter and look diffrent when illuminated due to different lenses. Personally I think they look a lot more modern compared to the early ones. The rears I sell include all bulbs and harness and are a straight swap, it's a quick and easy job to swap them over. This pic of Pete's shows the pre-facelift rear on the left, the facelift rear on the right. http://www.pbarfield.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10001/halfdone.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 also like the pre-face ones on a black supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Another configuration of the rear lights Greg, still black surround. Thought about facelift rear lights but I too don't think they don't go well with a black car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 Thanks all and cheers Pete, Burna and Nic for the pics. I think you're right Burna, not to keen on a grey surround on a black car - looks a little odd and out of place. Reminds me of cheap lexus upgrades for saxos and the like to be honest. Thanks Nic for clarifying mate, but do you have any other rears available? Burna - really like those mate. They look lovely, more moden and clean. Are they standard UK Spec ones then?

Burna Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Burna - really like those mate. They look lovely, more moden and clean. Are they standard UK Spec ones then? Ah see you're not as green as you're cabbage looking Missed you not being there Sunday, I wore a T-shirt I had printed especially for you. Everyone thinks you have a lovely girlfriend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 Lol why thanks Burna. Missed you too buddy and yes I certainly do have a lovely girlfriend. Let me see this t-shirt then. Did it say 'Greg's best friend' or 'I'd like to play with Gregs friend' ? Would you like to spend a little 'quality time' with her in exchange for your lights? I hope pimping isn't against the board rules. She takes the piss out of you lot and meeting my 'supra friends' anyway so you're welcome to her bud! In the middle once again - her friends are available too Really hope to see you soon bud. Once my car is back on the road, next 2 weeks hopefully, I'll catch up with everyone at the next mids meet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaiscossie Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 i think the facelift rears give the car a 'meaner look' keep thinking about getting some myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 On black though mate??? Not convinced. On silver or red definitely like them, maybe with blue too, but look to strange on black and too 'aftermarket' blatent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 2 weeks Greg! What you having done now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 2 weeks Greg! What you having done now? .............perhaps Mr Wilson could enlighten me as to what needs to be done first mate!! Think he's pretty damn busy at the moment so should find out soon. No doubt some expensive work. I'm hoping it's not so I can get my other bits and bobs sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerT76 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Stick to the black one's mate, they look better on your colour car! If your into pimping....i'll take the tall blonde[GRIN][/GRIN] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 Yeah cheers Tiger. Her name is Jenny, she's 18, she has 34 DDs (I know this as she's left her bra here many a time before when visiting my sister. No, I didn't look in her bra!) and goes to Bristol Uni but lives her in Solihull in the hols. She is single and goes like the clappers.........so i've heard £20 for the week mate.
