I haven't seen any on the net, but I'm keeping my eye open. I tried some A1C? replacement 3157 bulbs, but they were not bright at all.

Are you talking about the Altezza Euro Style Clear taillights? I have called around about those and everyone says they wish they sold them.

Let me know if you are talking about some other kinda of "clear lights".

I've looked everywhere I know, and haven't found them. If anyone know's where to get them please post.
Also, has anyone found the full tailight covers, not just the slotted ones?

These APC Euro Tec's would look great on the Av ?:0:
They just don't make this application yet ?:C:

hmmm, those would match the TT-style fuel door pretty well, and key off of my other chrome stuff too (GM Grill bar, side bars and rear hitch bar/step) - I never thought I would be seriously considering a Japanese look for my rear lenses, but, well, hmmmm . . . . ?>:D (what the hell, I have a jap bike, so I already crossed over long ago, but it is a question of mixing in a jap theme with a US Chevy truck that stops me).

btw, XRover reported sporting euro-style rear lenses at some point on his Av (don't know details).

and if you have an 02 S-series Chevy PU, you are in luck:

Those are the one's I have been looking for and I thought chevroletavalanche was asking about.

Enlighten me ... What are A1C lights? I couldn't find anything online about them.

Ahh ... the Sport Trac Euro Style Clear taillights... brings back memories of Kalama. Has anyone seen her new video? We need some how to MOD videos like that here! ;)

I have looked for the also and have been told that they are not available for the Av. Unknown if they will be made for the Av.

I tried everywhere. My local speed shop wishes he could get some as well. I'm thinking of puttin the Cadillac EXT taillights on if they don't make a production run of the clears. The double hump on the lights is an eyesore :B:

I know what you mean Jewvalanche, the double hump is not the most exciting thing on the AV and was wondering about a EXT replacement. I was also think about replacing my door handles and tail gate handle with the EXT's.

The door handles are $50 each, and the tail gate handle is 109. This is the dealer costs.

Have you been reading my CAFCNA "Street Edition" POST?

This is what I looked up on the EXT handles earlier this month. ?You should check with one of our site sponsors to see how much better they can do with the cost/shipping. ?The first item one the list is the tailgate handle and others are for the door handles. Their $165 price sure beats the dealers $309.

EXT handles at GMPARTSDIRECT

I will check on the EXT taillights tomorrow.

I better take a break from cruise planning and recruiting and back to my modding ? :-[

RoarinRow ... no problem. ?

I see that my "Touching your AV" picture made it into your webshots album ?;D ?Cool ... I know some members have confessed to using my reader rides screensaver submission as desktop wallpaper.

Here is the "touching" picture in 800x600 wallpaper format. ?Don't go telling anyone else now?;)

Hmm, gmpartsdirect says 15044523 is a LEFT REAR ESCALADE LAMP, and it does look different. Part number 15096923 says EXT LEFT REAR LAMP, but there's no picture, and 15096924 just calls it a LAMP. But hey, at $68.64 each, they're cheap enough to take a chance.

I noticed that too. ?My Caddy contact told me these are the numbers. ?You should verify if you are really interested.

I am going to wait for the Altezza clear tail lights for myself.

EXT taillights will not fit!

They are about 1 inch to short, top to botom and front to back :7: :7:

I have to replace one of mine on my AV, thought I'D kill 4 birds with one paver stone. Get two Ext lights. I parked next to an EXT at a local dealer, (Chevy not drug) got out my tape mesure and screwdriver. Sales man said now way to the screwdriver test (remove and replace) but let me mesure it. She no fit :6:
