Ta for the advise R2

I like them! I wouldn't describe them as "Lexus style" because they's not even slightly similar to any Lexus I've ever seen. I'd just call them modern style, they look good though!

 

[pammy]

Not for me

Looks like the plastic is broken and the reflector is showing to me. A miss IMO

 

[GRAV888]

Deffo a miss for me too.
Look half finished.

You just missed out on the clear set from my old c-class.
Anyway, @ Altreed: Have you fitted them yet matety?

Damn shame, but not to worry. How much were your clear clusters to buy? I've not bought these yet, dont know that I will. I was hoping someone had a pic of these on their car, as I think its hard to tell what they might look like. I'm only considering them as my car is silver, and the clear/silver bits might work colourwise.

Not my cup of tea I'm afraid... a bit too 'Amstrad' if you know what I mean???

I think Lexus style rear lights belong on the back of a Lexus. As someone else mentioned above I don't think that these particular rear clusters look that 'Lexusy', they're a bit more like the later style Astras. I'm not really fussed on that clear lens and silver reflector look, I much prefer my OEM dark tint look.

In terms of styles that I do like... I really like the all LED look a'la some of the BMW 3 series that I have seen and also one Maserati that I see regularly round my neck of the woods.

Hi, I always thought the newer Lexus Sports styled lamps are all chrome reflectors with clear plastic lenses. The colour of the lights come from red and orange coloured bulbs. Correct me if I am wrong.

At first glance, they don't look too bad . . . . but I'll bet they don't do an estate version ! I expect the quality is not that great though. Nope - I'll stick with what I've got !

I think they look quite stylish, I'd have them if I had a c class .

 

[stwat]

Might look good on a 17 year olds corsa Sraight from chavdome IMHO

 

[dvndave]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder . . .not subtle enough for me and I thought the ridges on Mercedes lenses were there to help keep them clean?

 

[grasmere]

I wonder if any Lexus drivers would fit 'Mercedes Benz' style rear light clusters - theres your answer as to whether they should be fitted IMHO . . .

Yeah but as I said, the term "Lexus style" doesn't really describe them well because they don't look like any Lexus lights I've ever seen!

I think they might look quite good on the car. I'd like to see a picture of it.

Grav, I havent got them on. I have been experimenting with LED lamps heading for a total clear/white look. Not winning! But on the case. I am eager to get them on tho.
