2002 tail light conversion

[tbaltazar411]

Ok so, I had a hard time importing the tail lights that are half clear from Brazil, so I decided to go another route. I took tail lights from the early version montero sport and modified them a little before installing them on my 02 MS. What do you guys think?


First I sourced a clean set of 99 tail lights from ebay for $80 and after rattle can spraying them and wet sanding them several times, i ended up burning the clear coat with the buffer :/ (so eventually I had them professionally sprayed with red and clear).


Next I unraveled the wiring and re-wired them so the side light came on with the top blinker light.


Here is a pic with the side and top blinker on.


Here is just the tail light, still shines through perfectly.


So what do you guys think?

Thanks man, that is what I was going for, the turn signal mod is pretty easy and actually adds safety... even better that I may be the only person in ca, or even the world that has done it....
