installing 488 tail lights to 458 ?

Of course it is possible .. but why ?

 

No

 

Although I prefer the 488 taillights, I wouldn't change them on your 458. I would keep your car 100% stock. That's the way they made it and that's how it should be.

 

Bad idea bro.

 

Most Fcar buyers want it stock. So be prepared to reinstall the original tail lights when you sell.

 

dont do it keep them stock..

 

Because they look better than the 458 units. Simple.

 

Why stop at the tail lights?

 

Why can they not be exchanged Carlo ?

 

You can't do it. Different size and shape.

 

@holynitro

Someone did it here:
I'm also interested to do a 458/488 taillight swap actually. The led on the 488 looks much more modern.

 

then you should buy 488 instead

 

Why sacrificing the 9000 rpm when you can have best off both worlds? #OpenMinded

 

can't have cake and eat it too.

 

I Want to replace it also!

 

Well guys …. POST all about the swap here please !

 

Didn’t watch the video all the way through but there was a guy on here who modified 488 lights to fit on his 458. He used 458 carbon fiber caps over the 488 lights so to make the lights look right

Here it is

 

This is difficult to do, but it is possible) You need to merge 2 cases, the upper part with an electric board from 488 and the lower part from 458, since it is narrower in the mount. Then the seam on the body was hidden under carbon

This was how he said it was done

 

found the user who did this, but he never posted any info on how or what he did...
