i would love to know about the reverse lights aswell,
cause when mine gets re-painted mine are coming off cause
they look a bit gay, but i guess they let people know
that you are reversing so you dont get hit.

While i was building my first escort i drove a HQ ute and i copied it's tailight design. I rewired the tail lignts so the blinkers came on when in reverse (not blinking of course) and filled up the holes those damn ugly reverse lights left. really made the car look clean. i might scan some photo's of it soon i really miss that car.

Nah, don't have any reverse lights at the moment. My dad's EH has it wired up so the indicators come on when reversing (as TEX said). Might do that to mine.

is that legal? flashing blinkers as reverse light?
cos i gotta get a roadworthy...
your tail light lenses are clear yer?
where do i get them from?
cos i could just add an extra globe for the reverse and still hav a white light not red..

the tailight lenses were made on the gold coast there are only three pairs made i have one that were fitted to the car and my mate has 2 pair of which he has only one pair left and he won't part with them
