$869 inc.GST for a pair plus P&H to your location. NO Group buy available on these. Order through the link above if you want to secure a set.

This may be a limited run and I'm uncertain how many sets I'll be able to continue to get so supplies may be very limited. Obviously refunds will be given if stocks run dry.

Seriously - I didn't think these would turn out as good as they have done. My usual impression of clears is that they cheapen the look of the car.

Well I was plesently surprised with the look of these. I think it's the combination of the black background (rather than cheap looking silver) and an excellent design both of each light cluster plus the indented grove that runs in sync with the cut-off of the boot to give it an OEM look....

I reckon they should have been what was on the back of the Mk IV Soarer (if they hadn't built the upside down boat - aka SC430)!!

The red in these photos are not the same DEEP red of the lights in real life. I couldn't seem to capture the colour on the digital, so these pics don't give these lights justice.

Anyone want to buy a set of 97' rear tail lights?! 'Cause they are sure as hell not going back on after installing these...

Hmmm...A typical R33 Skyline has two red round lights of the same size with a straight indicator under it. There are similarities in that they share having two round red lights! However with these, the one on the edge is smaller anyway and both are separated by the round indicator light (plus the additional round reverse light) so um...it's very different!!

I would have thought that they look more closer to a Supra Mrk IV than a Skyline... But hey I know those stove pipes can burn an image into your mind at the best of times....

They look more like the current Honda Integra Type S, not bad if you like that sort of thing, I for one think IS200 style light have only ever looked good on an IS200. come to think of it they really look more Supra than anything, Never a bad thing.

Hey for some reason my message I posted on Saturday isn't here regarding cheaper pricing available from Jeff...? I posted it up on TIFF but for some reason it's not here? Probably user error.... Anyway here it is again:
__________________________________________
It's just been bought to my attention that Jeff Harper has been selling these for a while and can get them in for you at a much better price than I can from a combination of his lower buy price and his drop shipping arrangements

(I import, hold stock and resell as I always want to assure delivery (from my) door to door and have local stocks).

Jeff's thread is here:
http://soarercentral.com/sc-forum/me...292/70477.html

So you will probably want to buy off him as I can't compete with that.

I hope the photos help of a real life install anyway.

Once I get a moment I'll attempt to get a shot in the bright sun so you guys can see what they look like in the day. After installing mine last night and taking shots in the dark I still love them in the light of the day today..

However I've gotta run as I'm off to visit friends now...

Cheers

Hey Kanchana,

As per my previous post get them off Jeff he can get them cheaper if price is your only consideration.

$870 is the best I can do when considering my buy price, freight, import duty, GST and business running costs.

I hold items in stock, guarantee delivery from our premises locally in Australia to yours, provide support if required, accept returns and offer a 14 day no questions asked refund guarantee. If I could register as a charity and pay no tax then I would. Until then I need to operate as a commercial business.

Your alternative is to pay less to an agent like Jeff who will organise to "drop ship" from his contact to you and subsequently you wear all the risk and incur import duty and gst directly which granted doesn't happen all the time for one off private purchases however still does happen from time to time.

You have plenty of choices..it is up to you what you determine as value for money, how much risk you want to wear and who you ultimately buy from.

Cheers

Haha, I think if I ever put my car into a show then I would get them, but only for that reason, too Skyliney. Would have been better if it looked more squarey.
