What do you guys think? And no I have not gotten pulled over yet. I'm surprised because I always drive past them.

You asked for it.

They look terrible, and just you wait the police will love to give you a ticket for it as soon as the opportunity arises.

If OP is happy, I am happy.

If the OP thinks any reputable car guy will approve, I think he has other pressing mental issues to be concerned about and that he should probably drastically start rethinking his priorities.

Why? I searched and see nothing about CCF Halos in tail lights?
I see LED halos and even a DIY for putting them in.

Perhaps you could point me in the direction of the thread you are referring to.

So again if you could point me to the relevant thread about putting CCF in tail lights that I carelessly overlooked when I searched it would be much appreciated.

If you can't open the taillights without them breaking, how could anyone have had this done.

IE you are asking for something that doesn't exist

He put LED halo's in his tail lights, and separated them to do so. If you can separate the tails and put LED halo's you could put CCF halo's in the tail lights as well.

If you had searched you would know that.

They became very cheap in the States. You can get one for as little as $5-6k, and as the value declines the tastes of people who acquire them has changed as well.

I didn't say I was planning to do it.
I didn't say I even liked the way it looked/might look.
I asked if anyone had done it.

And in all your responses you failed to provide anything helpful except that to your knowledge no one has.


IE all of this:

To my knowledge no one has successfully done that.
or even better:
