aftermarket taillight options
03/03/11 at 17:54:07
 
Hey all, I've had my new S40 for about 3 weeks now, and that stock taillamp is killing me. Does anyone else feel it is overpowering the rear fender area? Just wondering if anyone has had any experiances with an aftermarket unit and what it looks like. thanks, tanner

I got them a couple years ago and they are holding up pretty well. The lights on them weren't really visible in the daylight so I added some other turn signals to mine. I have the white "LN" model.

Demin, what brand tail lights is that on the back of the black savage? I agree the big red lunch box sitting on top of the fender makes it look heavy.

You can probably find one like it on eBay by searching for "cat eye taillight."

Been thinking about updating mine too.  What do you need to watch for, like electrical-wise?  Draw amount... wiring....  compatibility...  Anything special to avoid?

Looks good Arnold.  Saw one of those on ebay with the word STOP framed in the chrome on the top half.

Anybody got a "sparto" style?  Can't find any dimensions.  Wonder if this is big enough and would work?

Yea, they sell a lot of replicas for the model A, make sure to get the one made of real glass and not plastic though.

So Sparto Tail light is the correct name, I only knew the other one Smiley

$20 bucks with glass lens.  This is what I run with a side mount license plate bracket made for the model A tailight.  Love it

Got the bracket for $27 bucks from Road 6 Customs, that includes the powdercoating.
