Default For anyone looking for a direct comparison between US DOT and Euro B4 Tail Lights

Finally had a decent day to swap the euros over to my new car. So I setup a tripod and snapped before-->after shots for anyone who has ever wanted a comparison between the two:

Default What I absolutely, positively HATE about the US spec lights is...

the position and addition of the reverse lenses. It's ugly, randomly placed, and doesn't blend in or match with anything else on the car. At the very least the position of the Euro reverse lights was thought out far better in that respect. Just my $.02

Default Ah one thing I failed to mention...

for those who didn't notice already, I opted to use US corners with Euro Inner tails. Just didn't want to confuse anyone actually STFA'ing in the future.
