more info on the car. is it a coupe, sedan?? for tail lights you can use any 96-00 coupe if you have a coupe. and for the sedan you can only use sedan lights. and headlights dont matter from coupe to sedan and im not entirely to sure about the headlights, i know coupe and sedan interchange but 96-98 lights are different from 99-00 lights but i think they still bolt up the same. they just look different inside the light itself. Someone correct me if Im wrong.

Everything is correct except 96-98 and 99-00 headlights are not interchangeable with each other and would require a full front end conversion.

Ahhhhhhhhh ok. I had no idea. I thought it was just the reflectors. I've never put a 96-98 next to my 2000

Yeah, I have a 2000 hatch with a 2000 coupe front end, 98 and 99-00 lights, fenders, hood and bumper are all cut to different lines. You can tell cause the grill on a 2000 coupe is bigger than the grill on the 98 or hatch.

For my 96 EK Hatch...
I have seen the blacked/"smoked" tailights with the 3 red circles on it on ebay


But do they have any that are blacked/smoked/tinted that have the amber insert like the stock lights?


Or would it be best to put some kind of smoke/tint film on them or paint them?

I know what type of lights the car uses, I was wondering if anyone knew if anyone made aftermarket ones with amber inserts, or if I should just use Night Shades on it and tint them myself.
