Tail light conversion kit - bubble
Anyone have experience with these?
How do they look in person?
I can't see putting the old tail lights back in it, they do look old.
At $200.00 for stock looking replacements and $80.00 for these it's something to think about.
I just do do ugly well.

Fwiw
I think they sometimes look ok to good on the rubber bumper C3's but I don't recall seeing one on a chrome bumper C3 that I thought looked that good. The rubber bumper C3s seem more streamlined to me so the bubble tail lights fit that image without looking out of place.

I have the bubble lenses on my 68 and the bubble converstion kit on my 80.
I love the bubble lenses.
They'll clean up a little with plastic polish.

Bubble lights were on my '72 when I purchased it - I think they look good. The only issue is the absence of backup lights. I also re-wired both lights on each side to flash when the turn signals and brake lights are activated.
