I was just wondering if anyone knew if the tail lights on a 89-95 Pickup we the same as on a 1995 4runner. I wanted to do something with the taillights and I cant find anything for a 1995 4runner. Any suggestions?

 

welcome to the site. they are not the same

 

not much is available in terms of 2nd gen 4Runner taillights... all black and slotted covers, and the very rare clear taillights. you can paint them also...

that's it though.

 

The clears are rare indeed. I think they look good on black, dark blue, and white runners.

 

ANd Red Chopped Runners too. BTW I have a set of 2nd Gen 4Runner tail lights for sale if your interested

 

sorry to hijack, but... can we see more pics of that heep?

 

Thanks for the help. Does anyone know where I can find the clear tail light?

 

ebay, most likely

 

You wouldn't have to hijack, if you PM'd him...

BBall,
If you read 4Hummer's post he said he had a pair for sale...

 

Go to http://www.obsessiveoffroadclub.com/gallery.htm Look up alex weber

 

4Hummer Do you have a pair of clear tail lights for sale?

Also if anyone finds a pair PLEASE let me know. I have looked on EBAY many of times. Thanks

 

Yea, they are really really rare. I have only seen 2 pairs in the last year on ebay and I check every cuple weeks. They sold for over $200. In 2001 when I got mine they were only $40-60.

 

No I have the factory Tail Lights for sale. Not the Clears.

The Clears I got off ebay like 4 years ago and paid welll under $50 for them

 

Well thanks for the help guys. Keep me in mind if you ever see any for sale.

 

I used to have clear tail lights on my 4runner. I painted the tail lamp part red and kept the turn signal clear. It looked awesome and is legal (I think). The red paint I used didn't hold up that great and people started asking me why I had pink tail lights. So, I took them off, but haven't gotten around to repaint them yet.

I found them on ebay about 2 years ago and paid $45 for the pair. Other than that, I don't know where you could find them at.

Picture of painted tail lamps attached. Click thumbnail for larger color pic.

Well, that's it. Have fun all.

BTW, the difference between the truck and 4Runner tail lamp is that the truck has the reverse lamps in the tail lamp. The 4Runner has the reverse lamps next to the license plate, or mounted farther apart on the door if you have a tire carrier. I believe the Hilux Surf has the reverse lamps on the tail lights like the trucks do (not 100% sure on that though).

Have fun.
