***Tom's Clear Tail Lights***

We got a batch of Tom's Clear Tail Lights in-house and haven't seen many good photos of these out.

Wanted to give you guys a closer look at these. We really like them and, obviously, are of the same quality as the original Tom's tail lights.

Video is in the works to compare vs. the straight Red ones. Thinking we like these the best!














Some comparison shots for you all.

Clear Tom's on the left and original Tom's on the right.







Installed on the car. Clear on the RIGHT and original on the LEFT.

They are nice except for the side reflectors lights, I wish there is JDM clear lens version.

These are on the top of my list at the moment, just because of that black housing. I've been waiting on lights with black housing. Now to convince myself to purchase them and not think it's a waste replacing perfectly fine lights.

I thought I wanted the clears. I'm glad I got the reds when I did, avoiding the wait. Both are great options.

I definitely like these over the reds. Does Tom's offer smoked lens?

Would love to see these on a Raven. If it looks like I think it will, my search for tails might be over!
