upgrading JDM 06 taillights

I'm going to be swapping out my 03 taillights to jdm. I will post new pictures as as soon as I install. I have 03 USDM taillights GTR style smoke overlays on them if any body is looking for taillights send me a PM. Has anybody that has upgraded to 06 taillights actually hooked up the trunk button or just left it alone.

i swear the 06-07 butt is much rounder than the 03-05. it's a loud rounder near the trunk area. maybe it IS the same. i think what makes it different in my head is the fact that the spoiler is a bit rounder, not as flat as 03-05.

in any case, 03-05 rear deck will look funky with 06-07 taillights i'm guessing

I'm thinking about putting the same JDM tail lights in a 2005 Coupe.

Did you ever get the trunk button to open the trunk lid? I think that would be a cool mod.

keep them as they are. the back of your car is "busy" enough as it is. no need to add more to clutter it back there.
