Your best bet is one of the kits. It's actually a 'replacement' type mod to do.

Look for the LED tail-light conversion kits. They're kind of hip.

Personally, I think having the wider spacing of the stock set-up, will allow people
behind you to have a better distance perception at night.

It's a common mistake for drivers to think you are farther away than you are, based on
your rear-lights appearance.

Just something to think about. I'm sure a lot of our members will dis-agree with the severity of this as an issue. It IS, after all, a popular modification. I'm just a wee
bit **** in my views, where safety is concerned. Check out my sig, ;-)

Good luck, Ern

I wouldnt recomend using the stock taillight cause when you hit the brakes its will turn off the blinker...its gonna be easyer to just buy the aftermarket one on ebay for 80$ i think..good luck....if you arldy have that one and its not working it might need new resistors.
