    The outerlights are Euro spec. They don’t belong on the car. I have the correct lights for you. Happy to trade :).

    Nevermind. One is a Canadian-spec rear bumper.

    Huh. Had no idea. I will take a closer pic of them and post. Are you sure it isn't just that the bulbs are orange?

    With U.S spec lights, you can’t put a bulb in there. It’s actually blocked off. Even if you could, it doesn’t light up. I would’ve done it already :).

    Euro-spec lights actually have an amber lens inside. However, I’m not sure if bulb is clear or amber… yet. I have the Euro outer lights in a package I haven’t opened. I could use another set :).

    Does yours have a bulb? If it does, I’m positive it does nothing unless someone went out of his way to euro-spec the lighting harnesses.

    That's just great! Now my car has the ugly rear bumper to add to its five or six shades of yellow, sandblasted fender walls, road-rashed front bumper, sagging driver's side view mirror secondary to its roll onto its roof at Lime Rock Park in 1996, rubbed Challenge wheels, peeling/patinaed cam covers and jack-dinged doors.

    It won't bring a cent on BaT. :(

    I don't know if it has a bulb, but if it does, it's not hooked up. I tested the lights during lunch and the orange center part does not light up under any circumstances. Absolutely no idea why these are on my car. Seems like a weird thing to change. Talk about minutiae. You got any clear front turn signals? Trade + cash?

    lol. Clear turn signals are worth 2x the tailights:). The outer lights are rarely changed. They don’t experience outer light cracking often as they don’t light up in the center.

    I’m looking for a pair myself. I need doubles of everything :). Hence, “double impact” on my wallet.

    Whew! I'm glad I have yellow turn signals...

    They're protected by blue tape.

    Oops! It looks like my tow hook is bent. Oh well, it's something else to bring down the value of my car. :)


    By the way, my car got the 348 Challenge tow hook up front as it was prepped in late 1994. The rear tow hook is mounted on the driver's side...

    The 1995 Challenge Rules and Regulations Manual hadn't been written yet when the car was developed. All other F355 challenge cars have it on the passenger side. No matter, it still works.
