Default What's the go with these taillights?

I reckon they'd look awesome on my black paint but i can't see how they work...
There's a spot for a reverse light, another for an indicator, but then only 1 position for a red brake light and standard taillight...

That's no different to what we have now...
1 position for red - brake light & tail light.

You're probably thinking the lower red is needed...? the rear fog light. You don't need rear fogs by law in oz.

One thing not always seen on aftermarket tail lights - but req by the law, is the red reflector. These have them.

Is it legal that they don't have an orange lens do you know?

They gotta flash orange, not be orange when unlit. Many cars have clear indicators these says but they all flash orange. The front of WJ's is like that.

You can buy globes that are silver/chrome in appearance but flash orange or you can save yourself $20 and paint you factory orange globe with some silver paint (light coat) works the same.

Hi bikemat, the altezzas will look good on black. I bought mine 1 month ago, though on a black ZJ. Be sure to choose the one which has black or carbon fiber inners.background, don't go for the all clear ones, too much shine.

WT is right, it doesn't come with the fog lamps socket. I just put an insulator bag on the extra fog lamp bulb/socket to prevent it from shorting when wet and blue tacked it to the tailight assembly. Also, keep in mind not to switch your foggies on.
