Default Spiderlites and tinted tails

I had a problem with my spiders showing through my tinted tails so, i decided to clear my tinted tails and see if it improved the daytime brightness.

The pics didn't turn out because i'm no photographer but the shots that did show up I will say they were brighter then shown and also compare the tail to the 3rd brake light in each pic.

Here is a pic of the brake lights on with the sun shining practically on the tails(worst scenario).


Here is a shot of my spiders in my old tails(now belong to the buddy who owns the white prix). I think they look *****in in these tails.



Tonight i will get pics in the dark.

You're bold... Someone rear-ends you and your insurance is going to have a field day... I'd switch back to 3457 filament bulbs myself...

Night pics

no brakes


brakes on


These are the spiders in the old tails of mine which are on the white prix now


The spiders were so bright in the altezzas that the don't show up as spiders just round bright lights.
