I was browsing ebay and found these, http://item.express.ebay.com/BMW-E36-3-SERIES-93-98-EURO-RED-SMOKED-TAIL-LIGHTS-4DR_W0QQitemZ150172026892QQihZ005QQtrZexpQQcmdZExp ressItem (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-1751-2978-71/1?AID=5463217&PID=2518995&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fitem.express.ebay.com%2FBMW-E36-3-SERIES-93-98-EURO-RED-SMOKED-TAIL-LIGHTS-4DR_W0QQitemZ150172026892QQihZ005QQtrZexpQQcmdZExp ressItem)

Has anyone ordered them before? It doesn't say what brand they are. I really like the "Non-Crystal European style Red/Smoked Taillights" style. Does anyone else sell these? I have seen other smoked like but they are too dark/blacked out for me, these look nicer imo.

Anyway just wondering if anyone had experince with this particulare item (brake light circuit messages?) or knows where to buy other brands that look the same elsewhere.

Habbie sells them too (www.bavtoys.com (http://www.bavtoys.com)). They look similiar, but I've heard of the Ebay ones throwing "Tail Light Failure" errors on the OBC. Habbies won't.

Yeah, stay away from eBay stuff. Habbie sells higher quality stuff. Go OEM, you'll be happier

i made the mistake of getting ebay taillights only to never be happy with their quailty. the light from one bulb would bleed over into the next bulb housing there wasnt any clean cut offs. so i put my oems on and blacked them out...so much better now.
