Not my cuppa tea, but go with what you like Ben! I think clean originals with black outers and chrome pin stripe is nice.

This is one version of what a UD hatch tail light would look like. Its a bit XD Falc I reckon. Maybe a direction for you?

The dark lights will help remove the BIG look the UC lights have... Cool

Be mindfull if they are too dark to meet ADR, your insurence will be void including TAC.

Leakey those ones look alot nicer dont they! hmmm if only they made them ^_^

as for the darkness 426, i put them up over the ones on the car and turned the indicator on and ever through the standard ones then this one you can still clearly see the light so should be fine i think...

just got to get around to taking mine off and giving them a go..

thanks for the comments guys! :spoton:

Food for thought, H2 Hummers require a complete light change to comply to ADR even though their lights seem bright enough. We've had the top side markers tested and they don't meet ADR. The second you tinted your lights you altered the design and are technically no-longer legal untill tested.

If you can get brighter globes in there, this may improve your legalities.

Dumpers look great mate!!! Bet you it sounds tough as!! Ill try and watch the vid you put up when i am at home with sound!

It would be good to see the lights on the back of your car... Have you thought about painting the Orange backing of the tail lights black, and having the standard lenses? Might be worth trying? I had thought of that with maddys car.

Hi Ben
You been nice to the diff or not? lol, my bango is still going but for how long?
Your dumps sound great and it looks better lowered but the tailights just a light tint would be plenty.
