You have RSX Altezzas but no RSX? Don't understand your question.

I'm guessing he's put RSX altezza's (they don't even look good on the RSX) on his Eclipse....no clue what'd be needed. Try the Eclipse forums.

Altezzas are fucking SWEEEET!

Just do a search for 'Acura parts' and you'll get a million companies that sell all that stuff...

Nah, Altezzas are ugly, in my opinion. I guess I just don't get it! No insult meant if you have them on your RSX S777.

S777 has altezzas. They're chrome and they have rings that light up and when they do they make 13 year olds pee their pants.

He's just being sarchastic, i've seen him make posts saying how RSX altezzas suck.

Re: Tail Light Wiring/Socket/Bulbs..Where can I Find these?

Canuck lies. IMO Altezzas make a cheap-ass car like the RSX-S look classy. I'm also partial to those 4 foot high aluminum wings and custom exhaust tips made from modified garbage cans. Those parts are on hold, however, until I install my tailpipe flame thrower, my LED air caps and washer fluid nozzles and underbody neons...

Re: Tail Light Wiring/Socket/Bulbs..Where can I Find these?

You haven't lived until you've seen a 1993 Dodge Caravan fitted with random splotches of orange neon under the car and, I kid you not, lining the rear side windows.

Let's not forget that the window neon doesn't line all 4 sides of the window. There's just the occasional 24" tube duct taped at the ends at random places.

The vehicle I'm describing belongs to someone that goes to my school. I shudder anytime I think about it.

Garbage cans? Dammmmn you're rich. All I can afford are the Folgers cans


Seriously though, before the F&F craze I was actually thinking of altezzas (when no one had them and I was looking at getting a 99 Civic SiR) and valve stem nozzle LEDs

Re: Tail Light Wiring/Socket/Bulbs..Where can I Find these?

I'm glad F&F happened...now it's much easier to spot the massive shitheels. Nothing like calling attention to your crumbling 18 hp Hyundai Sonata with shoddily installed tacky green Streetglows and red plastic wipers from Autozone...

The only replacement housings I would ever consider buying would be the JDM or Angel Eyes for the front (I hear they look good, but visibility is crap). If I could find aftermarket redout tails I might get them. The whole vinyl redout trick doesn't appeal to me.

Re: Tail Light Wiring/Socket/Bulbs..Where can I Find these?

With the angel eyes you need HIDs because the projectors aren't that great.
There are also "Depo" headlights which look like stock headlights but are blacked out and have available clear reflectors. Dunno much about quality or fitment though.

This is the closest to OEM like aftermarket tails:

These look pretty good but they're no making them anymore (I think):
