Wow they are cheap, I recently took the chrome of my taillights and I like the extra red but I forgot to restore them from the inside where they get hazy so I was thinking about this set for a change since my car is black I think it would look kind of cool but some LED sets look a bit out of place.

I can already tell you 50% of the folks that buy these WILL have issues....(the eBay ones)
Simply put....
There are two different tail Light designs for the years these list as fitting....
If you recall pre 2005 cars had a bumper mounted backup light (2002-2004)....in 2005, a plate covered this spot, and a light was installed In the taillights....
Sure they are the same shape....But are different.
Which ones those fit....
Who knows....
The listing says 2003-2006.....Strange....
Sounds like stupid cheap Chinese manfacuring turning out parts, not knowing what they will fit....

At least the amazon ones say they have the backups....so they should work on 2005+ cars....and returnable...so good plus there....
My tails are a bit cloudy....
Been thinking the same thing...
Think the clouding is a chemical change in the plastic....maybe a bad batch of plastic....my guess...
