View Full Version : Tail light idea


ween19108-30-2006, 03:31 AMI had an idea while at work the other day. I want the center panel for the tail lights to be all solid. No key hole and no reverse lights. I want the reverse lights mounted inbetween the two brake lights. Has anyone done this before?

Crappy MS Paint to give an idea of what I mean...

I don't think it would look a lot better then stock, but just enough for me. Haven't seen it done so I like that factor too.

I was just showing you that, it would be a hell of a lot cheaper (and more fun) to do it yourself with your existing panel. The reverse light idea is a kick *** idea! I hope your able to accomplish it. ween19108-30-2006, 08:02 PMIm trying to figure out if the light between the two brake lights will pop out or if I have to give it a little effort. I haven't measured, but it looks like the same size as the reverse lights. Hopefully I'll have time Saturday or Sunday to give it a better look.

PHOENIX, how much does that center panel normally go for? I have a few friends who are very good at fiberglass (hell, he said my bumper would be easy to fix...crazy man) so I was thinking about just adding a few layers of fiberglass to it to make it solid. PHOENIX08-30-2006, 08:09 PMCenter panels go for about $50 to $75 bucks.

Is the center panel metal or fiberglass? Ive never taken the time to notice or look. N8s93turbo08-30-2006, 08:09 PMi have my key hole shaved :)

Nice idea Raptor13x08-30-2006, 08:15 PMIt'll look good, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort. ween19108-31-2006, 11:02 PMCenter panels go for about $50 to $75 bucks.

I think its plastic actually. And I did a freehand measure of the lights, they are exactly the same size so I should be able to pop the reverse lights right in the slot. Sweeeet! PHOENIX08-31-2006, 11:04 PMDefinately keep us updated on this mod, id like to see the turnout. Tuna09-01-2006, 03:36 AMmy old car (cdallen owns it now) is like that but i didn't have reverse lights anywhere else. it just doesn't have any.

Fiberglass was used to cover up all the holes. Just Wong It09-03-2006, 03:19 AMso what happens if someone hits you at night?? not knowing you were backing up?? would it be your fault cause you dont have reverse lights or would it be theirs? i mean it looks cool and all and gives it that clean look to it.. but whos fault would it be? Lardo09-03-2006, 03:31 PMYOu know i have the same idea as you doo but instead of having a plain center panel like the one shown on the red mr2 id rather have the 91 stock one with the letters mr2 im pretty sure you guys know which ione im talkin about have the 94 lights with the 91 center i think that would look really sweet TKMR209-03-2006, 03:56 PMYOu know i have the same idea as you doo but instead of having a plain center panel like the one shown on the red mr2 id rather have the 91 stock one with the letters mr2 im pretty sure you guys know which ione im talkin about have the 94 lights with the 91 center i think that would look really sweet

I've seen pics of a few mr2's like that ween19109-03-2006, 07:34 PMYOu know i have the same idea as you doo but instead of having a plain center panel like the one shown on the red mr2 id rather have the 91 stock one with the letters mr2 im pretty sure you guys know which ione im talkin about have the 94 lights with the 91 center i think that would look really sweet

You want to put your reverse lights in the same spot too? ween19109-03-2006, 07:34 PMI have one of those sitting around right now... and I'm trying to get rid of it. (For sale BTW :-D)

How much for the center panel? Ncturnal09-03-2006, 11:37 PMI like it better unmodified. ween19109-04-2006, 12:50 AMI think that the 94 tails are by far the best for an mk2, but I think this will give it a more unique look without compromising overall quality/look. Lardo09-04-2006, 01:20 AMhave you really seen mr2s with the 93+ tail lights and 91 panel..? send some pics my way i watn to see how it looks

and no i really dont want to mess up the panel but some how put the the reverse lights in between the brake lights or some where else but if any one has pics ill be glad to see em

thanks in advance =) ween19109-04-2006, 03:21 PMI think Tuna posted a pic of what you are talking about. And I'll have a pic of the reverse lights when I'm done changing it all out. canadam09-04-2006, 05:52 PMIn the vast majority of cases, if you make contact with anything while backing up, it will be your fault.


so what happens if someone hits you at night?? not knowing you were backing up?? would it be your fault cause you dont have reverse lights or would it be theirs? i mean it looks cool and all and gives it that clean look to it.. but whos fault would it be? canadam09-04-2006, 05:54 PM--> Click this link to see a thread which showcases this setup :)
