Default MY taillights! need help..

ok guys i've found these on ebay but im wondering what the difference is...

http://cgi.ebay.ca/96-00-CIVIC-COUPE...QQcmdZViewItem

http://cgi.ebay.ca/96-00-HONDA-CIVIC...QQcmdZViewItem

http://cgi.ebay.ca/96-97-98-99-00-CI...QQcmdZViewItem


so those are the 3 im stuck and cant decide.... im just wondering what the difference is between the oem or the altezza... also the last link the clear finish or whatever is on the tails looks kind of weird... im just not sure which one to go with... arethey just different knockoffs and does it not matter which one i choose? im just hoping to replace the ambers i got on my 96 si. thanks in advance

The first two sets are almost identical and are Si replicas. The third is a altezza version of the red and clear tails so they are the "ricey" ones.

Either of the first two should work just fine. But, buy some clear silicone or sealant and seal the taillights before you put them one, because non-OEM tails are cheaper and tend to get water in them and fog up.

Oh, and I wouldn't be surprised if the first two end up being the exact same aftermarket brand of taillights. lol
I'd buy whatever was the cheapest.

I'd buy the cheaper ones and make sure you seal them from water!
