TX WTB: Tail Lights

Hey guys, I'm in need of a set of tail lights (Driver's and Passenger's Side).

My current ones aren't holding up to well, with all the rain they have been leaking badly (drilling holes has failed me).

So yeah, if you have a good condition set preferably ones that aren't scratched up and most importantly don't leak, please drop me off a price and shipping to 76705.

Thanks!

Your problem lies not with the tail lights, but with the gaskets. . .

A few other locals have drilled tail lights and they look great (you have to drill the holes in the right spots to allow moisture to escape)

So... drill holes in the bottom black part to allow moisture to drain OR replace the gaskets...

New tail lights won't solve the problem.

Hey thanks for the tips, but I've already tried drilling holes in the bottom black piece, and the moisture does escape, but it comes back during heavy rain.
So I'm going to go the gasket route this time, but unfortunately the holes have already been drilled, and hence why I'm now looking for another set.

I'm also looking for a new set because one of the threaded retainer has snapped off so it gets a bit loose from time to time.
(wouldn't want it to fall out while driving )

If anyone does have a good pair with gaskets please shoot me a price.
Paypal or Check/Money Order ready!

Thanks again.

Thanks for not drilling your tail lights, the moisture would just come back anyway. Call these guys, they are reasonable and in Texas.

Haha, oh **** I ordered some stuff (AP sides and rear aero flares) and I could have sworn the items came from Texas.

edit:

Never mind I was thinking of these guys, they are great too. Goes to show I order too much stuff.
