Ralphie ★ Posted March 18, 2019 Share #1 Posted March 18, 2019 The ones with an x in a square. At first I thought they looked like the x"s in cartoon eyes of people who have been knocked oot. But now they just look like Phillips screw heads to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JerrySTL ★ Posted March 18, 2019 Popular Post Share #10 Posted March 18, 2019 I almost considered buying one of the Jeeps because I like those tail lights so much. Too bad the center brake light isn't also a X so that the Jeep would be Triple X rated. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not, those Bell + Howell TACVISORs advertised on late night TV actually work pretty good. The yellow visor works well at night for bright headlights and during rain and fog.

MickinMD ★ Posted March 18, 2019 Share #12 Posted March 18, 2019 I've always like the tail lights that look like red eyes with a black dot in the middle, but they don't tend to match the styling today. Remember when headlights used the same bulbs for almost every car and cost $3 instead of the complete unit that costs over $100 now? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cops should write them up and then take a hammer and smash all the illegal lights. That might make people think twice about buying them.

She hadn’t even gone a mile and the cops pulled her over. All they told her was to let her boyfriend do the driving until you are old enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
