The problem with that daves 413 is cops are really strict in my town about how dark your tail lights are. Touch those look pretty good i must agree, which ones did you end up getting?

Oh believe me, same state man they are bad all over haha. You can use niteshades to tint them as much as you want though. If you just want the smoked look go 1-2 coats. I did mine uber I-****-bats-im-so-dark black and failed state inspection lol

i got these ones, had them on for about 6 months now with no problem. Just remember to carefully peel off the rubber sealer on ur stock one and stick them on the new ones.

it seems much more economical to tint them yourself. mine cost me 30 minutes of work, 1 hour of drying time, and $15 for the spray can (used 1/4 can)

Seriously before you drop $95.00 on these id much rather smoke my spare set for you and sell them. I have the niteshades and have had enough practice at it. Buy local imo
